Mykolas Vaitiekunas / Product designer

I design digital experiences that help people in the real world

About

I’m Mykolas, I build useful digital products through understanding people who use them. I’m a bit of a generalist and like to sit in between business, product, engineering and design.

Usually I work in-house with small and medium sized teams to bring their products to the next level. I specialise in building tools that make complex and boring tasks simple and delightful.

Work

Career

I'm a product designer with a focus on creating intuitive, user-centered digital experiences that balance business goals with human needs. With a background spanning UX, UI, and visual design, I enjoy solving complex problems through research, iteration, and thoughtful interaction design.

My approach combines analytical thinking with creativity, ensuring that every decision is backed by both data and empathy.
