UX

Nosco is an online innovation management and collaboration platform that enables enterprises to collect, evaluate, mature and incubate ideas across organisational and geographical borders. Thousands of users across the globe use Nosco to drive innovation within their organisations. Clients include brands such as H&M Group, Orsted, MIT, Novo Nordisk or  Velux.

As Design Lead I'm responsible for designing for a user experience that delights customers as well as help us achieve our business goals. I am a key player in the product development as well as delivery of new Nosco features and overall CX.

Throughout my time at Nosco I have directly contributed to multiple high-impact projects such as design system, and core platform features.

Nosco is a complex enterprise platform with multiple views and components. One of the main pain points and challenges were: a lot of legacy components and inconsistent and unobvious UX. In addition to that, Nosco struggled bringing new features to clients and keeping up with competition due to technical and design debt as well as lack of standardised components.  

In order to tackle the problem, our CTO initiated a full rewrite of the code and infrastructure. This gave us the opportunity to redesign the entire platform, screen by screen. Starting in the admin section and gradually moving to the end user facing UI . The goal was to fix known design flaws, improve the overall UX and visually update the platform

We started the redesign by introducing a design system with coded components that significantly sped up product development and reduced developer load while ensuring consistency. I built the components using the atomic design methodology and aligning everything to an 8pt grid.

In the past, Nosco has come short optimising the platform for the mobile and tablet experience due to lack of resources and client demand. However, our data and research confirmed the overall trend of increased mobile usage. Therefore, we put an extra effort into responsiveness, designing with the mobile experience in mind. We fixed obvious design flaws, introduced new mobile optimised UI patterns and added mobile components to the design system.
