Karim Fouad

Product Designer

I design interfaces for products people use under pressure — dispatch screens, clinical intake, banking apps. Six years of shipping, and the work I am proudest of is usually the screen that got simpler rather than the one that got prettier.

Projects

    Lead designer

    Rebuilt a 14-year-old operations screen around one question: what does the operator need in the next four seconds? Shipped in stages over seven months.

  • Arabic-first design system

    A component library where RTL is the default and LTR is the variant, rather than the other way round. Adopted by three teams.

    Lead designer on the dispatcher console used by 1,200 operators. Reduced average task time by 38% mostly by deleting things, not adding them.

  • Product Designer — Sahl Health

    Designed patient intake for eleven clinics. Ran the first usability sessions the company had ever done, with actual receptionists, on actual shift.
