Hi, I’m Vova Kondriianenko.

A Software Interfaces & Web Designer with 18 years working across the board, from pre-seed startups to global enterprises

Logos of companies I’ve had the pleasure of working with

What do I do? I make things that actually work. I bring sanity to design chaos, build design systems that can survive a storm, and get products out the door on time

Strengths? Years in the game, zero tolerance for flimsy solutions. I know how to make peace between designers, developers, and everyone in between


Looking for a design partner who gets it? Let’s talk. We’ll bring your vision to life, no drama, no fluff. Just results

Meaningful and thought-provoking description

As a Staff Product Designer and Individual Contributor, I led the project to refresh the Student profile page. The goal was not only to enhance its visual appeal but also to synchronize it with the feature set of the mobile app and the feature set of our CRM.

We analyzed user feedback and conducted a series of experiments. We developed a new information architecture, created dozens of low-fidelity prototypes, and gathered extensive feedback from stakeholders and users worldwide

One Lane

OneLane is an app-based family service that assists parents with getting children to school and other activities. It answers a real need and solves a persistent problem for parents – how to be in two places at once yet also enable their children to get to and from their activities. With an easy-to-use app, parents are given constant reassuring updates and can have total peace of mind during every mile of their children’s journeys. OneLane's carpooling service helps to solve the issue of congested roads and, as a result, has a positive effect on road safety and car emissions.

Note taking app

I've searched for the perfect notes app that is native, fast, beautiful, functional, and intuitive but haven't found one that meets all my needs. Evernote, OneNote, Apple Notes, Notion, and Bear each had strengths and weaknesses, from privacy concerns and design inconsistencies to overwhelming features and lack of tools. I realized that maybe the perfect app doesn't exist or requires a blend of existing tools tailored to my workflow. By integrating multiple apps and using automations, I created a system that evolves with my needs. Perfection is subjective, and sometimes, imperfection is the perfect fit.

It was great pleasure for me to work close with Volodymyr Kondriianenko at Kantar Consulting account at Ciklum. I can describe Volodymyr as very bright and gifted Product Designer with absolutely unique skills.


Volodymyr perfectly knows what he does and can easily involve into his vision whole team including executives. In addition to that Volodymyr is able support implementation of his vision during whole period of product evolution not losing control on each single detail. He shows similar passion working on very single parts of application and on a platform design concept.


Volodymyr has all necessary skills to guide and mentor a team of UX/UI specialists. He can perfectly work inside of cross-cultural team with no language barriers.


To summarize I see Volodymyr as one of the top Product Designers at Kyiv who has exceptional background and skills. If needed I am open to provide details on his duties and achievements at Kantar.

Volodymyr is one of the most dedicated product designers I’ve ever worked with. I had the pleasure of collaborating with him on developing our entire product’s design system and other related pages. Volodymyr significantly enhanced our product and completely redesigned our design system to create a seamless and intuitive user interface.


His exceptional design skills and leadership enable him to solve complex problems quickly and efficiently, often generating innovative solutions that exceed expectations. Volodymyr is a fantastic team player who has played a crucial role in fostering a positive and collaborative atmosphere within the design team. His ability to build strong relationships and encourage open communication has been invaluable.


Beyond his professional skills, he serves as a mentor and life coach, offering invaluable guidance and encouragement. I highly recommend Volodymyr to any team looking to enhance their design capabilities and team dynamics. All the best!

I had the opportunity to work with Volodymyr as a Product Designer at Kantar. His talent and dedication to work and design are exceptional. He always finds great solutions to the challenges and problems he encounters.


Volodymyr is a great interface and graphic designer who decided to dive into the world of UX design, which makes him the perfect guy to bring the user-friendly and brilliant design in product development together. He's a highly-talented, detail-oriented professional, able to get your vision, put ideas together, and make them come true. He has an extraordinary ability to be a great researcher of most innovative design ideas through the most updated trends in the UX world.


He is always full of new suggestions on how to organize the work together with him in a better way by sharing his overview of fresh and useful applications and best practices in self-management and design discoveries, which makes the process of work very stimulating and encouraging. His ability to get an idea in very complex solutions and inspire the whole team to put it up in development is a key feature for the success of the projects he works on, getting as a result wonderful, really good looking and user-friendly web interfaces.


I can recommend Volodymyr as a person with great design skills, full of original ideas. He is proactive and self-motivated. He understands the exact needs of a project and its final user. As part of a team, he denotes an easiness to build interpersonal relations with others, which is the key in the world of globalization and digitalization of working relations.

I was the newest member of the UX/UI team and was a bit nervous. Then I meet Vova. The way he explains and shares information made my learning process so easy and focused. We need more Vova's in our UX/UI design teams. He is curious, a neverending source of knowledge and a team player. You will be missed on our daily meetings!
