Hey, I'm Karol. A Product Designer based in Germany, bridging the gap between user needs and business value.
I'm all about functionality over fancy looks because, let's be real, stuff that works beats stuff that just looks cool.

Experience
Most recent first
Personio
2023 — present
I'm part of the Workflow Automation team at Personio. I helped launch our Workflow Builder to general availability and am now focused on improving its foundations, increasing its utility, and using craft as a lever for growth and differentiation. I work closely with senior leadership and my immediate peers, overseeing the end-to-end design process. Additionally, I collaborate with the broader design organization to integrate automation into the larger context of our product, the business, and our customers' daily operations
Shopify
2021 — 2023
At Shopify, I contributed to the Growth Organization, focused on strategic initiatives for Activation, Retention, and Monetization. I developed UX Visions for Retention and Upsells, optimized the subscription checkout flow, and created a comprehensive pattern library for sign-up. My contributions resulted in significant improvements in satisfaction, loyalty, and business growth. Additionally, I provided guidance and mentorship to a talented product design team, fostering a culture of excellence and driving impactful outcomes.
Wunder Mobility
2018 — 2021
As the first designer and employee number six at Fleetbird, I took on a versatile role, contributing to our success in achieving product-market fit and scaling our customer base by 10x to six million shared rides annually. After our acquisition by Wunder Mobility, I worked with the Head of Design and another Design Lead to build a strong team, establish effective processes and practices, and create a comprehensive design system. I also had the privilege of managing and mentoring a talented team of designers.
