Alex Radaev - Portfolio

Why work with me?

Strategic Product Thinking

I always start by asking if we are solving the right problem. This usually looks like challenging assumptions, clarifying scope, and connecting design decisions to product strategy and business goals.

End-to-End
Ownership

I excel at working on projects with high-level of ambiguity and taking features from 0 to 1. From discovery and ideation to handoff and iteration, I keep projects moving.

Technical
Mindset

Having hands-on experience with React, TypeScript, and Next.js, helps me understand front-end constraints and trade-offs. I design with implementation in mind leading to smoother collaboration with developers.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

I’ve worked closely with PMs, engineers, and designers to meet business requirements and deliver projects on time. My collaboration with developers includes clear handoffs, ongoing support, and post-implementation QA.

Dev. Projects

Creating this app introduced me to NextJS framework and helped me learn about NextJS' file structure and navigation, dynamic metadata, MySQL and Prisma, React Query, filtering and sorting by altering search parameters and more.

There were a few new concepts and tools that deepened my understanding of React (queries, caching, client and server-side components) and data manipulation using the ORM Prisma.

In order to practice previously-learned React concepts and apply them to real-world scenario I built a personal web-based grocery list. While the original idea was to have multiple pages with recipes and dashboard, I scaled it down to focus on a single concept.
‍
Working on this app I have learned important React concepts like elevating state management into context file, making API calls to the database, as well as configuring database (Supabase), authentication and managing user sessions.

This was my first React project that introduced me to the front-end development. Creating this app step by step has taught me core JS development logic and showed me how to set-up a development environment, use version tracking (Git), interact with node package manager and deploy the app.

Learning about React (TS) and its key concepts provided me with a solid foundation for my front-end journey.

Reviews

Pat Chaisang

Founder & CEO, Wayble

Alex is self-motivated, organized, and takes full ownership of his work from discovery to delivery. He knows how to balance speed and quality and when to bring others in for feedback or alignment. That kind of autonomy is rare and extremely valuable in a fast-paced startup.

Since joining our team Alex has played an integral role in the evolution of our platform. Most notably, he was instrumental in the design of our hero product, the Wayble Co-pilot. It’s a complex and ambitious tool that took 2–3 months just in ideation. Alex approached it with impressive business acumen, a deep understanding of user needs, and a resourceful mindset.

Head of Product, CarbonGraph

We were looking for a designer to help us improve our web product and flesh-out some features. Alex stood out to us due to his responsiveness and having a high-quality set of reference projects to get a feel for his design capabilities.

Results met all of our expectations, and we really liked all of the variants of embed components in particular that Alex created for us. We really enjoyed collaboration process and Alex willing to iterate with us as we refine our concepts and loose ideas into a basic and then final designs. Overall, it was a very productive project!

Co-founder & CEO, Evoke Health

Alex's ability to quickly understand project requirements and the specifics of our web platform, as well as previous design experience made him stand out. He met all of our expectations, I was pleased with the results and how he was able to deliver it within the set timelines. Alex is easy to work with, doesn't need a lot of hand-holding, and provides good communication throughout the process.

For all of the reasons mentioned above I would definitely recommend Alex as a product designer.
