My User Experience side asks "How is the best way for us to build this product" and then my Product Owner side asks "Should we be building this product at all" and while those 2 sides of my brain are either working together or at conflict my day-to-day consists of- Prioritising projects so that we make the most impact for PayFast, our merchants and their buyers.- Researching (with our merchants and their buyers) the best ways for us to execute our goals.- Competitor analysis- Communicating the product vision to developers and inspire them to strive to create an amazing product- Creating wireframes / high fidelity designs consistent with the PayFast design system.- Managing the sprints and backlogs of multiple development teams- Reviewing the product (Design review on a per-ticket basis as well as end of sprint review with stakeholders)- Participating in daily standup to inspect daily progress- Facilitating rollout plans ie. deciding the order to build and rollout functionality in an iterative release process. - Running A/B tests to inform decisions and increase efficiency of the product. In a nutshell I make sure that what we are delivering is useful, usable and delightful products to our merchants and buyers.

I worked as a Product Designer and Product Owner. I was responsible for usability research, designing the website and app as well as doing all the liaising with the 2 different companies that were developing the website and app. I left after a very short time as the MD of the company would be dominated by his partner who didn't believe in Usability testing and Data analysis but preferred the "because I said so" approach. Ultimately this wasn't a good fit.
