About me

Amanda
Galvao.

Senior Product Designer

Product designer with 4+ years leading end-to-end UX for B2B2C and B2C services. I translate complex requirements into intuitive, measurable experiences that drive real outcomes — a +47% uplift in conversion, 300× growth in weekly journeys, and reduced operational costs through design-led thinking.

My approach comes from architecture first. I design the structure before the surface — so whatever sits on top is coherent, not cosmetic. Skilled in data-informed research, prototyping, and building scalable design systems that enable fast, high-quality delivery in agile environments.

  • Scaled weekly verification journeys from ~3k to 800k+ (250× growth) by redesigning KYC, identity and age verification flows, increasing conversion and enabling enterprise adoption across major clients including NatWest, Adobe, and DocuSign.
  • Increased completion rates by 47% through a complete redesign of verification journeys, including rebranding, UX/UI improvements, error recovery mechanisms, and verification decision logic optimisation.
  • Reduced returning-user verification costs by ~66% and improved completion speed (−91 seconds) by introducing a reusable identity system, enabling users to skip redundant steps through secure data reuse.
  • Reduced first-time user verification costs by 31% by re-architecting verification flows to eliminate unnecessary SMS usage on low-intent and unverified journeys.
  • Unlocked product scalability across enterprise clients by transforming rigid journeys into configurable, flexible verification flows.
  • Improved user adoption for key client by up to 15% by identifying adoption barriers through client collaboration and data-driven UX decisions using behavioural analytics (PostHog, DataDog, Lyssna).
  • Progressively took ownership of UX strategy for cost, performance, and growth by auditing end-to-end journeys and identifying opportunities across product and operational layers.
  • Enabled product-led growth and sales efficiency by designing internal tools — self-service portal, testing environments, developer documentation.
  • Accelerated delivery speed and design consistency by building and scaling a Figma design system and introducing AI-assisted workflows (Figma Make, Claude).
  • Led cross-functional alignment and product direction across Product, Engineering, and Commercial to support enterprise scale and go-to-market.

"I believe good products create a nearly invisible flow. Whether physical or digital, people want to find their way with ease, and maybe even enjoy the journey. That's why I'm interested in both the systems behind the experience and the interface in front of it. I design for clarity, reducing friction and helping people move confidently from one step to the next."
