I’m a product designer and builder with over 10 years of experience turning complex technical products into intuitive user experiences. Combining visual storytelling with hands-on coding, I’ve shaped high-scale products across three continents for companies like Checkly and Sweatcoin. Currently based in İstanbul, I collaborate remotely with global teams.
AutoShelf
Automatically monitors folders in the background to sort files, clear clutter, and run custom organization rules the moment new files arrive. Built to eliminate the friction of manual sorting, save valuable time, and keep workspaces perfectly organized without constant manual effort.
A global status bar provides immediate clarity on whether file monitoring is active or suspended, eliminating confusion over why background rules are not running.
Color-coded indicator dots on a clean list view let users instantly distinguish between active and paused automation rules at a glance.
Inline action controls clustered on each row allow users to instantly test, configure, or delete rules without navigating away from the main list.
A segmented toggle splits complex logic into Basic and Advanced views. This keeps the initial setup simple for standard use cases while preserving deep configuration power for power users.
The slide-out right sidebar handles rule creation quickly without navigating to a new screen, keeping the workflow fast and maintaining direct visual continuity with the main dashboard.
Sweatcoin
Sweatcoin is a health and fitness app that rewards you for walking and exercising. It works like a pedometer, tracking your physical movement and converting your steps into a digital currency called sweatcoins.
Designed Clubs for Brands, a community-driven engagement platform for Sweatcoin that transformed traditional advertising into gamified fitness ecosystems.
By bridging brand loyalty with social competition, I delivered a 40% increase in DAU and a 25% boost in partnership revenue through a high-conversion onboarding and rewards UX.
Streamlined the multi-level navigation structure into a hub-and-spoke model, reducing the average interaction path to core features by 32% to eliminate navigation bottlenecks.
Implemented a progressive feature disclosure strategy that introduces advanced tools and rewards based on user engagement levels, resolving feature discoverability issues without causing cognitive overload.
Replaced the information-heavy initial setup with a contextual, just-in-time onboarding flow, driving a 28% improvement in new user retention during the critical first week.
Orçun is a stellar product designer who seamlessly blends creativity with functionality. He is highly collaborative, user-centric, and a proactive asset to any product development team. I highly recommend him.
Checkly
Checkly is a developer-centric application reliability and synthetic monitoring platform. It allows engineering teams to continuously test and monitor their web applications, APIs, and microservices.
The original Browser Check Editor hindered developer efficiency with a cluttered, poorly utilized viewport that distracted from the editor. Additionally, viewing result outcomes like console, network, and run logs required navigating through multiple clicks.
We analyzed user feedback and Hotjar sessions to identify issues with the old design. Through an iterative process with multiple rounds of internal and external feedback, we ensured the final product met user needs.
We decluttered the viewport by nesting the script in a high-contrast dark editor container. This isolates the workspace and removes surrounding visual noise so users can focus entirely on coding.
We maximized screen real estate by stacking metadata, error counts, and live URL screenshots into a dedicated right-hand column. This uses the full width of the screen efficiently without burying key data.
We grouped the Console, Network, and Run Logs into a permanent bottom split-view. Developers now get instant visibility into script results without having to click through multiple menus.
We replaced confusing text inputs with a visual, non-linear slider timeline for check frequencies. This makes it intuitive to select common developer intervals while preventing overlapping run conditions.
We consolidated all secondary configuration panels into a unified accordion drawer. Stacking settings like integrations, alerts, and environment variables keeps the main editor clean and lets developers modify settings without leaving the context of their check.
Orçun brought a keen design eye and a strong passion to every project, meticulously ensuring a robust UX process from start to finish while collaborating seamlessly with global stakeholders. He played a pivotal role in evolving our design practice and scaling our processes across multiple international offices, making him an invaluable asset who elevates any team he joins.
