Alvin Shiu is a User Experience Designer with a decade of experience translating complex data-driven workflows into elegant, usable SaaS products. Trained as an architect and artist, he brings a spatial, systems-oriented approach to UI design—building modular design systems and even a custom product font and iconography to ensure visual consistency at scale. He has led end-to-end product design at startups and enterprise teams, collaborating directly with C-level execs, sales, data scientists and engineers to rapidly turn business needs into working interfaces. Comfortable prototyping in code, Alvin bridges design and frontend engineering (SCSS, JS libraries, responsive patterns) to shorten feedback loops and ship stable apps. Based in San Francisco, he thrives on tackling unfamiliar industries and turning domain complexity into clear, maintainable user experiences.
