Hi! I'm Oleksii Zhuk,
a Product Designer & Front-End Developer.

One person, from the first sketch to the last commit.

I offer UX/UI design and web development as parallel services — from research and interface design through to fast, accessible, production-ready code.

Tools I Use Daily

Portfolio

After more than 10 years of work I've completed 40+ projects. Below I've listed the most prominent work that helped products grow and progress defying challenges that came along the way.

My Approach

I am a huge advocate of the design thinking and humanity-centered approaches. Throughout the years of designing for multiple teams in parallel I developed the 4-stage method that leads to a desirable outcome every time.

stage-01

Empathize

Conduct thorough research to gather extensive insights from users, analyzing their pain points to uncover the root causes of a problem.

stage-02

Define

Calibrate the problem scope, prioritize the most critical issues, and develop an actionable strategy to articulate the problem effectively.

stage-03

Build

Move from concept to reality — prototype the design, then build it in production code with reusable components, motion, and accessibility baked in.

stage-04

Evaluate

Validate with users, then ship — QA across devices, tune performance and Core Web Vitals, launch, and iterate on real-world feedback.

How we'll work together

01

Discovery

A short call to understand your goals, audience, scope, and constraints — and whether we're a good fit to work together.

02

Proposal

A clear plan: scope, deliverables, timeline, and a fixed quote or monthly retainer. No surprises, no hourly guessing.

03

Design

Research, wireframes, and UI — reviewed together at each milestone until the direction is signed off.

04

Build

Production code and CMS setup with reusable components, motion, and accessibility — reviewed on a staging URL.

05

Launch

Cross-device QA, performance and SEO tuning, then deploy to production with a smooth, monitored handoff.

06

Support

Ongoing iteration and maintenance on a retainer, or a clean handoff with documentation — your call.

Kind Words

Questions

What kind of work do you take on?

Two things: UX/UI design — product and web interfaces, design systems, prototypes — and front-end web development — custom marketing sites and web apps. You can hire me for either, or for both end to end.

How much does a project cost?

Every project is scoped individually. After a short discovery call I send a fixed quote based on scope and timeline — no hourly guessing. Monthly retainers are available for ongoing work.

How long does a project take?

A focused landing page is usually 2–3 weeks; a larger site or product-design engagement runs 4–8 weeks. You'll get a firm timeline in the proposal, before we start.

What do you build with?

Modern, fast, standards-based front-ends — Astro and React, TypeScript, semantic HTML/CSS — with performance, accessibility, and SEO built in from the start. I also work with headless CMSs and existing stacks like WordPress.

Do I own the design files and code?

Yes. On final payment, everything is yours — source design files, code, and assets — with a clean handoff and documentation.

Can you work with my existing team?

Absolutely. I regularly collaborate with founders, developers, and marketing teams, and can slot into your existing workflow, tools, and repository.
