About Alain Somphone

Product Designer currently building the V2 of a high-growth B2B MarTech SaaS that lets PPC managers and agencies build, review, and approve Google/Meta ad mockups in hours instead of days, using Figma Make AI + Google AI Studio for rapid prototyping, refined with senior design pattern judgment, and validated with shadcn/ui + Tailwind front-end concepts.20+ years shipping B2B products that drive measurable revenue. I take complex paid-media workflows and turn them into interfaces so intuitive that agencies adopt them on day one.The current stack:* Figma Make AI + Google AI Studio → interactive ad-builder prototypes from a prompt in <10 minutes* 20+ years of design pattern recognition to instantly fix bad AI-generated layouts, spacing, hierarchy, and micro-interactions* shadcn/ui + Tailwind → same-day working front-end demos for team and user validation* Own the full design system, component library, and responsive preview engine across 30+ ad formatsThe result: approval cycles slashed from days to hours, fewer revision loops, faster campaign launches.I move fast, ship clean, and obsess over details that affect the bottom line.Always open to conversations about B2B SaaS, MarTech/AdTech, AI-accelerated design, or founding-designer roles at growth-stage companies.
