Tatyana Bondarenko
Clear design for complex products.
Hi there!
I’m Tatyana Bondarenko, a digital product designer with a foundation in finance and a focus on UI/UX for data-intensive platforms. I translate complex information into clear, intuitive systems that people can trust, designing for usability, confidence and clarity in high-stakes environments.
My approach is both analytical and empathetic. I think in systems - mapping flows, testing assumptions, and refining interactions - while staying attuned to the subtle cues that shape user behavior. By combining design strategy with frameworks like HIGs and systems mapping, I create solutions that are precise, scalable, and human-centered.
For me, design is not only about solving problems; it’s about anticipating needs, uncovering patterns others might overlook, and delivering experiences that feel instinctively right. The result is digital products that operate seamlessly, reflect brand integrity, and foster lasting connections between people and technology.
Vault App.
Designing the Collectibles Management Application
Vault is a private digital platform designed for individuals with exceptional collections - from fine art and watches to rare wines, cars, and jewelry. It provides a secure space to catalog, track, and protect valuable assets while offering clarity, provenance, and peace of mind.
The onboarding flow was designed to establish trust, exclusivity, and efficiency from the very first interaction. Every screen is intentional: concise copy, secure interactions, and a luxury aesthetic that mirrors the expectations of private banking and high-value asset management.
“I believe great design goes beyond aesthetics — it’s about understanding people and creating experiences that make them feel understood.”
Financial App.
Designing the User Experience for the Financial Product
Due to the NDA, I’m unable to share the name of the platform. However, I can say that this was a high-stakes, high-complexity product operating in the finance and insurance space, serving an audience of high-net-worth individuals and financial professionals.
As the in-house UI/UX designer, I was responsible for shaping core product experiences, from first impression (login and onboarding) to daily usability (client data dashboards and interactions).
This product required deep attention to security and precision, and my role was to ensure that every design decision served both user needs and business goals.
FitDeposit:
AI-Driven Fitness Accountability and Reward System
FitDeposit is an AI-powered fitness accountability coach that incorporates a unique deposit reward system to encourage consistent exercise and healthy habits. Users make a financial deposit tied to their fitness goals, as they gradually meet their targets, they earn their money back incrementally; if not, the deposit is retained by the app.
Freightlane: Making Trucking Run Smoother
Freightlane is a mid-size logistics company managing a fleet of 50+ trucks across several states. Their internal dispatch dashboard had become outdated and fragmented, slowing down workflows and creating unnecessary operational friction.
The client asked for a more “Uber-like” design and experience - clean, intuitive, and built for real-time action. I led the end-to-end redesign to streamline dispatch operations, elevate live fleet visibility, and enable faster, more confident decision-making. Within the first three months after launch, FleetOps recorded a 35% improvement in route efficiency, a 22% reduction in idle time, and an 18% savings in fuel-related costs.
