Experience

Servidos

Lead Product Designer

2026 Apr – Present · Contract
  • Led product design for Servidos, an early-stage two-sided service marketplace launching in Argentina.
  • Designed launch-critical customer and provider flows, including request creation, provider job discovery, offer submission, offer comparison, payment authorization, autosave recovery, cancellation states, and review moments.
  • Mapped marketplace friction points across the core loop to identify where trust, motivation, and operational complexity intersected.
  • Reframed onboarding and verification timing so customers and providers encountered friction at moments of clear intent, rather than before understanding the product’s value.
  • Designed offer-card and payment-authorization structures to help customers compare provider identity, trust signals, scope, price, next actions, and protected payment states.
  • Helped prioritize launch-critical UX improvements for beta while avoiding unnecessary full-redesign delay.
  • Proposed autosave and draft recovery patterns to protect provider effort in long mobile proposal flows.
