Product Designer

I am a founding partner of The Rondesignlab, which is a highly regarded digital product design company specializing in Fintech, B2B, SaaS, healthcare, and consumer products.

At Rondesignlab, we partner with global organizations such as Ford ($F), Fox Sports ($FOXA), Colgate ($CL), Samsung (SSNLF), Huawei, Kohler, Vessel, and many others to develop innovative digital products.

With over 15 years of extensive management experience in the technology and design industry, I have held various design, management, and leadership positions.

As a co-founder of The Rondesignlab, I am actively involved in strategy, marketing, and business development. In addition, as a partner, I am involved in projects to ensure the optimal implementation of our strategy and product design.

"We hired a designer with '3 years of experience,' but their portfolio only showed basic wireframes." Lesson learned...

Ask the right questions to assess the true capabilities behind "many years of experience." 
Let’s say: you're interviewing a potential new hire, their resume boasts "mobile app development experience," and you picture this design god who architected the entire system. 

But then, during the interview, you discover their "experience" involved... well, making a single button.

Look, there's nothing wrong with starting small. 

But imagine a team of 300 building a product. Every member contributes, but in vastly different ways...

So did the candidate write the core functionality or simply design an icon? Did they suggest crucial UI/UX improvements, or just follow instructions?  

These details matter.

"They're copying us again!" - one of the managers noted. "Good," I replied, without hesitation.

You see, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but it's also a powerful motivator. 

When someone copies you, it's a clear sign that you're onto something. 

So instead of getting upset, embrace it. Let it fuel your drive to innovate further. 

After all, the best revenge is massive success, right?

Long story short: my work was stolen again! 


I'm still a digital creator, and for me, it is important that the copyrights for the content I create are respected.

Today, someone stole a huge amount of works and put them on Behance. Guys you need a little more moderation on your side.  

This person copied a lot of works .... For what? 

I'm always amazed by such thefts. The thief probably thinks they will be chosen over an agency or a well-known specialist?

Thanks to everyone who wrote to support. 

Creative projects need to be created independently, then they will have value

Sincerly, Jack

Zero reaction from Behance

This is a usual thing that works from portfolio, cases or portfolio at all could be stolen. 

But one thing that confuse me more that the theft of intellectual property again and again - it is a zero reaction from the such huge and famous platform.

Zero reaction and absence of moderation for new works. 
So based on my experience, any person could create the duplicate of my work and post it from their profile?

#MicrosoftDynamics365 ? Yes or not? Absolutely yes.


It offers an intuitive user experience and streamlined UI. The platform combines CRM and ERP features with a user-friendly design. Customizable dashboards and role-based views make it easy to access relevant information, boosting productivity and decision-making.  Our vision you could check on Video and link below.

Airlines could generate an additional $5 billion annually by maximizing cargo hold space... but don't do that.

Optimizing cargo space in airplanes is an intricate puzzle airlines face every day. 

And that's where smart #TMS (transportation management systems) come in.

We recently designed a system that tackles this challenge head-on & provides a visual interface for loading #cargo, taking into account weight, dimensions, and safety restrictions (I'll leave the link in the comments).

The integrated system ensures every cubic foot is used efficiently, maximizing each flight's revenue potential.

It's like Tetris but for a plane's cargo hold 🙂

Hey, everyone. It's summer - everyone is hot and bored with business and educational content. 

So just some photos of LA at night.

P.S. I leave the house only in the late afternoon, although I love the heat.

Los Angeles: a dream or a reality? Like any metropolis, LA has its own nuances.

Prices for example. Housing here is exorbitant, and you can pay a tidy sum for a tiny studio. 

Then, the rhythm of life. But... believe me, it's worth it! This is a city where life is in full swing. 

Oh, and the diversity of cultures. Just imagine eating at an authentic Mexican bakery for breakfast, tasting Thai soup for lunch, and enjoying Italian pasta for dinner.

LA is a city where every day is a new adventure.

P.S. The video shows the fountain at Grand Park. It is here that you feel like the hero of the movie.

Red flags 🚩  for Heinz? or Pantone Ketchup color 🥫 

Heinz has brilliantly tackled "ketchup fraud" with their innovative "Is That Heinz?" campaign. 

By identifying the exact Pantone color of their ketchup and adding it to their label, Heinz has empowered customers to easily verify if the ketchup they're served is genuine. 

This smart solution protects their brand and ensures customers enjoy the taste they love.

The campaign's success is evident, with a significant reduction in the use of non-Heinz ketchup refills and an increase in Heinz ketchup usage in street food restaurants. 

As a fan of Heinz, I appreciate how they've combined creativity with practicality to maintain their iconic status and ensure quality for their consumers. 

 Pantone

“Fake it till you make it” doesn't apply to starting a business. The truth is...

Most successful entrepreneurs will tell you they lean heavily on mentors and advisors. 

I often fell into the trap of thinking I must be a one-man army. 

But trust me, wearing every single hat in the business is a recipe for burnout and disaster.

I wish I knew I didn't have to go it alone. 

There's a whole world of helpful folks out there, many of whom are willing to share their expertise for free.

Yes, you read that right. Free (though a virtual cup of coffee to show your appreciation never hurts).

Just embrace the power of collaboration.

User tests or how #linkedin do weird things?

Last week, I conducted an interesting user test on LinkedIn, comparing the performance of two different posts. Both posts were shared at the same time on the same day, but they yielded noticeably different results in terms of #impressions.

A little bit different text one post with the video one with the image - maybe the LinkedIn prefer static content? Any thoughts?

Here we go again... As soon as I wrote a post about copying works, I immediately faced total theft. 

Besides us, I also noticed other well-known studios - Cuberto, QClay Design - UI/UX Design Agency, Orix Creative, tubik. 

Behance we'd appreciate some action about completely stolen projects. Such fraud is unacceptable.

Portable Storage Container - ain't that a dream?

In this regard... ContainGo (the app you see on the video) is a brainchild of our team. It was designed to bring the thrill back to, well, managing storage containers.

The container tracking system of this app can actually save you money (and your precious time) by ensuring that you know exactly where and from where it's heading.

I wonder if you think this software is useful. I'd appreciate your comments.

"My biggest hiring mistake? Hiring hands, not heads."  I remember that time when I desperately needed someone to, well, just do something... 

I hired a bunch of "hands," right? 

They got the job done, sure, but did they make things any better?

The thing is: companies that thrive hire "heads," not hands."

Heads are the problem-solvers, the idea generators. They can not only execute a plan but also craft one from scratch. They're the difference between blindly following orders and taking initiative to make things truly better.

Look at giants like Netflix and Amazon. 

They prioritize building a culture that empowers "heads" to think for themselves and solve problems. 

That's the recipe for innovation and staying ahead of the pack.

The takeaway? Don't just fill empty slots. Hire people who can think critically and propel your company forward.

What's common with Pantone and Heinz? 

Heinz has brilliantly tackled "ketchup fraud" with their innovative "Is That Heinz?" campaign. 

By identifying the exact Pantone color of their ketchup and adding it to their label, Heinz has empowered customers to easily verify if the ketchup they're served is genuine. 

This clever solution not only protects their brand but also ensures that customers enjoy the authentic taste they love. 

The campaign's success is evident, with a significant reduction in the use of non-Heinz ketchup refills and an increase in Heinz ketchup usage in street food restaurants. 

As a fan of Heinz, I appreciate how they've combined creativity with practicality to maintain their iconic status and ensure quality for their consumers. 

I like this “color design” approach” that helps to deal with this problem.

Over 67% of customers prefer self-service over talking to a human agent – a 2024 trend.

Let me give you an example of our Usechannel chatbot redesign.

We went beyond just making it look pretty. I'm talking about user behavior, studying how people interacted with chatbots and what frustrated them. 

The new design focuses on simplicity and clarity – it now feels like a friendly, knowledgeable assistant, ready to help users at every step.

P.S. This is the kind of stuff that excites me about the future of tech.

Who will be the next Siri or AI?

Soon ( my thoughts year or two), a new AI assistant will be available on iPhones, replacing Siri. 

This new assistant will be smarter and more helpful than Siri. It will understand what you say better, hold more complex conversations, and work with more apps and services.

The new AI assistant, sure Apple will add this -  will also be able to predict what you need and give personalized suggestions based on your habits and preferences. 

For example, it can remind you about upcoming meetings, suggest the best route to work, or recommend new movies and music you might like.
This change will make using your iPhone easier and more enjoyable. You'll get better responses to your questions and find everyday tasks simpler and more fun with the help of AI in your phone.

I'm exited how and when it will be implemented.

Those who read my posts, what do you want to see more of me - non-work-related content or business posts?

P.S. I get that it's summertime (& vacation time for many of us), so I'm curious about your take.

Collaborative teams or siloed specialists – what's the future of IT projects success?

As someone who's been in the IT industry for a while, I've seen the appeal of outsourcing specialists. 

But lately, I've come to truly appreciate the power of a well-rounded, in-house team.

Think of it like this: a strong UI designer can make your product look sleek, but without a UX whiz, navigation may suck. 

Recently, during a brainstorming session with my team, we realized we were headed down the wrong path with a particular contractor. 

But we didn't push a subpar product on the client. Instead, we pivoted, brought in fresh perspectives, and explored new versions.

The client was thrilled with the final product.

This experience solidified the importance of having a team with diverse expertise all under one roof. 

It's not just about the sum of the parts; it's the collaborative spirit that takes projects from "almost there" to "absolutely stellar."
