Top SchoolNikita Potapenko is a Senior Experience Designer with over a decade in product design and 6+ years focused on end-to-end UX, currently shaping enterprise and consumer products at EPAM Systems from Vilnius. He has worked across 20+ cross-cultural, multidisciplinary teams spanning legal tech, healthcare, internet security, agriculture, telecom and employee experience, bringing strong strengths in information architecture, data visualization and interface localization.

He champions accessibility throughout the design lifecycle, collaborating closely with accessibility experts and integrating findings into development cycles. As a mentor, tutor and occasional recruiter he has led hiring, onboarding and team delivery in agile settings, and he co-founded UX Connect and an urbanist initiative that reflect his community-driven approach. His background in linguistics and early work in translation and international procurement give him an unusual edge in cross-cultural communication and complex stakeholder negotiation.
