Dušan Kovačević · Senior Product Designer
About me
Available

Hey, I'm Dušan, a Senior Product Designer. I lead product design end-to-end for SaaS products, from UX strategy and research to polished, shipped UI, with a focus on the UX of AI: how it fits into a product and how people actually use it. Currently at Juicer.

Based in Serbia, working remotely. 15+ years of product design across social, developer tools, data platforms, marketing, cybersecurity and cloud infra, and I can take my designs all the way into front-end code.

The work moves numbers: A/B-tested redesigns at Juicer lifted signups 15 to 25%, connection flows improved 20 to 50%, and a product I redesigned at saas.group was sold following the redesign.

Role

I own product design end-to-end: UX strategy, research, interaction and visual design, and the design system. When it helps, I take designs into production front-end code too.

Focus

My focus is product design for AI in SaaS: how AI fits into a product and how people actually interact with it, grounded in strong UX and UI craft. An AI-native workflow lets me prototype and ship fast, and I run A/B experiments end-to-end.

Stack

Figma and design systems first, then Claude, Cursor and n8n for AI-native workflows, and React, Tailwind and HTML/CSS/JS when I take designs to code.
