Product Design for an Amsterdam-based Saas startup

Supported the Product Owner and management in shaping the user experience of a SaaS platform used internally by an international retail franchise.

Mind Your Waste BV

July 2021 - March 2024

Played a key role in shaping the user experience of a SaaS platform used internally by international retail franchises. Transitioned from Front-End Developer to UI/UX Designer, taking ownership of user experience strategy and execution within a European startup.

  • Led discovery efforts to identify user needs and operational pain points
  • Defined user journeys and interaction patterns to support complex retail workflows
  • Designed scalable UI solutions and interactive prototypes in Figma
  • Collaborated cross-culturally in an Agile environment to deliver incremental value
  • Acted as a bridge between business stakeholders and engineering, ensuring alignment from concept to implementation
  • Contributed to establishing a more structured, user-centered product development process

Unfortunately, due to the internal nature of the product, I’m not able to share any actual screenshots or designs created for Mind Your Waste. But here is a testimonial from the Product Owner at the time.

“Kelsey is a great person to work with and an excellent team player to collaborate with. I had the pleasure to work with Kelsey on several projects and she was absolutely dedicated to the tasks she had, very collaborative, great communicator, very logical, had great ideas on how to design user journeys, flows, had creative simple solutions for what seemed to me like complex concepts, anyone that will be working with her will be very lucky, she is a self managed kind of employee and is willing to take the lead if needed, good luck Kelsey with everything that comes next!”
