Résumé
Arshita Misra
Product Designer & Design Engineer
Working at the intersection of UX, AI, systems thinking, and design systems, and shipping end-to-end: research, information architecture, and visual design through to high-fidelity UI, LLM prompts, and production front-end.
Experience
Jul 2025 — Aug 2026
Founding Product Designer
COROS AI
- Executed end-to-end design of an AI coaching product 0 to 1 across web, iOS, and Android, from ideation, mockups, and user flows to high-fidelity responsive UI and front-end, taking it from concept to launch in 2 months.
- Created prototypes and interactive widgets demonstrating micro-interactions, then shipped them as production code (TypeScript, React, Next.js using Claude Code), replacing static handoffs with working builds.
- Redesigned onboarding and core app experiences from 1:1 customer interviews and usability findings, lifting new-signup next-day return to 55% and weekly active users to 40%, measured by Mixpanel.
- Led migration from MUI to a token-driven shadcn/Tailwind design system (54+ semantic tokens, design patterns, light/dark, published Figma component libraries), cutting design-to-review cycles from days to hours.
- Authored the LLM prompts generating every on-screen element, prompt-engineered the memory/RAG retrieval logic behind session history, and built a Streamlit QA harness to validate model outputs.
- Invented design narratives to communicate decisions to diverse stakeholders and created an internal tool that let founders, PMs, and engineers evaluate AI responses and collaborate in an agile environment.
- Established brand identity, logo, and typography in Adobe Creative Cloud, and designed marketing visuals (posts, short-form video, and an investment pitch deck) that led to the first round of investment.
Jun — Sep 2024
UI/UX Design Intern
Nitecapp
- Increased average tip size 15% at a pilot bar venue by designing a gamified system (badges, streaks, progress bars) that turned backend analytics into real-time, actionable feedback.
- Designed 30+ screens across 5 core flows and wrote documentation, handling real-time updates, offline sync, and delayed-data states, cutting core workflows to under 4 taps.
Projects
Sep 2026
Gmail Job Tracker
Full-stack Product Builder
- Built a full-stack Gmail job tracker end to end with Claude Code (TypeScript, React, Next.js, SQLite), using an LLM classifier to auto-sort 200+ application emails into pipeline stages with 96% needing no manual correction.
Sep 2026
WCAG Accessibility Auditor
Full-stack Product Builder
- Built an AI accessibility auditor with Claude Code that queues scans (Inngest), tests pages (Playwright, axe-core), stores history (Postgres), and tracks usage (PostHog), flagging 900+ WCAG issues across 25 sites.
Sep 2024 — Jun 2025
Switcharoo
UX Designer & User Researcher
- Won 2nd of 100 teams worldwide in the RESNA Accessibility Design Challenge with a WCAG-compliant, switch-accessible game library that cut caretaker support from 1 per child to 1 per classroom of 20, scoped through teacher interviews and usability tests with 25 children.
Jan — Jun 2025
Edmonds Historical Museum
UI/UX Designer, Senior Capstone
- Increased exhibit publishing capacity from 250 to 30,000+ items and helped negotiate and secure a $20,000 grant by designing a user-friendly modular publishing web application and reliable design system.
