Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSunny Thaper is a product design strategist and hands-on design team lead based in Phoenix with two decades of experience blending design, engineering, and product strategy. At Tallwave he leads a six-person cross-functional design team on long-term client engagements, driving end-to-end product cycles from empathy research to MVP validation while aligning work to executive KPIs. He combines a background in web development and UX to bridge gaps between design and engineering, runs high-participation workshops, and implements DesignOps practices to speed time-to-value and mitigate delivery risk. Earlier roles as a lead UX designer and freelance product designer gave him deep experience in prototyping, user stories, and technical implementation across web and e-commerce projects.
