My Role & Contribution

  • Led UX/UI redesign of the ZODIAC terminal platform

  • Defined information architecture and improved navigation structure

  • Translated complex operational workflows into intuitive user flows

  • Collaborated with cross-functional teams to align design with business goals

  • Contributed to delivering a more efficient and scalable user experience

Problem

  • The original interface presented several critical usability challenges:
  • Cluttered layouts made information difficult to scan

  • Inconsistent navigation slowed down task completion

  • Users spent excessive time searching for key information

  • These issues led to:
  • Increased decision-making time

  • Higher risk of operational errors

  • Reduced productivity across teams

  • Negative impact on project timelines

My Approach

  • I approached this as a workflow and information architecture problem, focusing on improving clarity, efficiency, and usability.

  • Key focus areas:
  • Simplifying complex layouts into structured, scannable sections

  • Establishing a consistent navigation system

  • Prioritizing key operational data for faster access

  • Incorporating user feedback to align with real workflow needs

Solution

  • The revamp focused on creating a clearer and more efficient user experience:

  • Information Architecture:
  • Reorganized content into a logical flow

  • Highlighted key features and critical data points

  • Navigation & Usability:
  • Standardized navigation patterns across the platform

  • Reduced cognitive load through clearer hierarchy

  • User-Centered Improvements:
  • Integrated user feedback into design decisions

  • Ensured alignment with both user needs and business objectives

  • Content Configuration:
  • Enabled flexible page customization

  • Allowed users to tailor views based on their preferences and tasks

Impact

  • The redesigned platform led to measurable improvements:
  • 25% decrease in task completion time

  • 35% reduction in development errors

  • Additionally:
  • Improved navigation efficiency

  • Enhanced team collaboration

  • Increased overall productivity and user satisfaction

Reflection

  • This project reinforced the importance of:
  • Designing for complex operational workflows, not just interfaces

  • Balancing business requirements and user needs

  • Using structure and clarity to reduce friction in high-stakes environments
