Smart EV Charging Management

As the founding product designer, I helped shape ZENO's EV charging experience from early ideas to launch. The challenge? Figuring out what drivers actually needed, cutting through the complexity, and making everyday charging feel effortless for 5,000+ registered users in Denmark.

From Zero to Launch

Helped shape the product from early exploration to developer handoff, making key UX decisions along the way.

Less Noise, More Clarity

Structured onboarding, charging, and dashboard flows around what drivers actually needed to do.

Built to Scale

Created a reusable, variable-based design system to keep the experience consistent as the product evolved.

The Four-Second Rule

Prioritized battery status and ready-by information so drivers could understand their charging at a glance.

A RECENT FLEX

More ThanExpected

What started as a random chai conversation about viral music websites turned into Devi Paksha, our own little Durga Puja experiment. A mix of Bengali nostalgia, Mahalaya music, and a bit of vibe coding that somehow turned into something much bigger than we expected.

Devi Paksha
A Digital Ode to Puja

An interactive digital experience bringing together Bengali culture, nostalgic music, Mahalaya and the atmosphere of Durga Puja.

OBLIGATORY INTRODUCTION

A Bit AboutMe

Namaste! I'm Ritam Biswas, a Product Designer with a CS background. I started out in graphic design and illustration, mostly chasing good visuals, until I realized there's more to design than making things look pretty.

These days, I enjoy figuring out what's worth building, why it matters, and how to make it work. From untangling messy problems to obsessing over the tiniest details, I guess I never really stopped loving the visual side of things either.
