PROJECT DESCRIPTON

Ravin uses computer vision and deep learning to detect and monitor vehicle condition leveraging mobile phones and standard CCTV cameras. Ravin was needing a product designer to take lead of the new US clients and I was brought on. Responsible for the creation of three mobile applications (UI/UX as well as design system creation, maintenance), and the UI/UX of Ravin's back-end scan analysis tool (Ravin Eye). Worked remotely with two other designers from the UK, a product manager from Spain, developers in the UK and data scientists from Israel. Responsible for the creation of internal company tool (Ravin Eye). Conducted internal and external user interviews to find areas of frustration/improvement for both our internal and external products. Worked alongside Toyota's factory team, running 2 week sprints at a time. Each handoff required a fully functional clickable prototype with animation timings/transitions and requirements for developers for implementation. Took weekly trips to auto auction houses/auction yards, dealerships to use our mobile app to conduct vehicle scans to see first hand how our product worked. Used Figma and Miro to design/collaborate. Used Slack, Zoom, Microsoft Teams for communication.

Successfully soft-launched our mobile vehicle inspection app into 50 Lexus/Toyota stores in the US, and 38 Mercedes-Benz dealerships in the UK in 2021. Now, fully launching to many more dealerships/locations in 2022.
