Hi, I'm Tom Mika

- a product designer with 9+ years of experience designing complex systems across architecture and digital products. My background in semiconductor and large-scale infrastructure projects developed a strong foundation in systems thinking, constraint-driven problem solving, and cross-functional coordination - capabilities I now apply to designing clear, effective user experiences for complex digital environments.

I’ve contributed to projects across the U.S., Europe, and Asia, working with multidisciplinary teams in highly technical and regulated contexts. I’m a strong, natural collaborator and often take on a leadership role within teams - helping align stakeholders, improve team dynamics, and keep work focused on shared goals. I’m particularly effective at bridging gaps between disciplines and creating an environment where teams can move past friction and deliver better outcomes together.

Today, I focus on translating intricate workflows into intuitive, scalable product experiences, with an emphasis on usability, clarity, and alignment with business objectives. My work spans research, interaction design, and visual execution, using tools such as Figma, Adobe Creative Suite, and Webflow.

I value structured thinking, clear communication, and thoughtful collaboration, and I’m particularly interested in enterprise and technical products where design plays a critical role in simplifying complexity and enabling better decision-making.
