About

Paulo Dourado

Product Designer with nearly 9 years designing digital products in the payments and fintech space.

Background

I design products that help people and teams navigate complexity. My work combines user research, systems thinking, and interaction design to create experiences that are clear, efficient, and trustworthy — particularly in fintech and B2B contexts.

Over nearly a decade I've contributed to growing products across cross-border payments, employee benefits, and digital education — from early-stage UX structuring to leading design across multiple squads. Currently, my focus is on data-informed design: using UX and product metrics to validate decisions and measure real impact, not just usability.

I'm also exploring how AI can augment design and development workflows — having used AI-assisted tools to significantly accelerate delivery without sacrificing quality.
