Testimonials

When we launched Poputkee, the carpool app, we thought the product was already convenient enough for users. But as the product started growing rapidly, we realized something important: the more people tried the service, the more obvious the pain points in user flows became.

We decided to take a fresh look at the product and reached out to Timur for a consultation. And it turned out to be one of the best decisions we've made.

Timur helped us see Poputkee through the eyes of our users. He highlighted where people get lost in the booking flow, why some actions feel unintuitive, how notifications sometimes confuse rather than help, and where navigation creates unnecessary steps.

Instead of a long list of issues, we got a clear action plan: • shortened the booking flow • made navigation more intuitive • improved the logic behind notifications • simplified the interface and key interactions

The result? We were able to prioritize improvements quickly, speed up development, and make Poputkee noticeably more user-friendly and intuitive. A huge thanks to Timur for his expert insights and ability to identify the real growth opportunities.

I worked with Timur at Pochemuchka, where he acted as much more than a designer – he brought the level of thinking and ownership you would expect from a Design Lead.

Since we were a very small team of just two people, his role went far beyond execution: he helped shape the product direction, establish design principles, and make key decisions that affected the overall user experience.

What I especially valued was his ability to work independently and think systemically. In a setup without a full design team, Timur was able to cover both strategic and hands-on parts of the work: from defining the visual and product direction to delivering polished design solutions.

I believe Timur would be a great fit for any company looking for a designer who can operate at a lead level, especially in fast-moving environments where autonomy and product thinking really matter.
