Hi, I’m Elitsa

UX/UI designer for complex B2B and enterprise products

I help product teams turn many user roles, dense data and tangled business rules into clear, buildable interfaces - from requirements and user flows to UI, design systems and developer handoff.

Companies I’ve worked with

  • Grundfos
  • DatumPro
  • O-Robotics
  • VRpilot
  • Diplo
  • Aalborg Institute for Development
  • Last Week In Denmark
  • GreenCarLane
  • Tempty Foods

Selected work

Four complex products, made easy to use.

  • Password protected

    DatumPro Telecom infrastructure

    Telecom network planning, simplified

    Telecom planners draw and manage infrastructure directly on a map, in one platform built for many roles and dense data.

    One platform replacing 4 separate tools, with role-based views for 3 user types and map tools set up once in Catalog Studio.

    Shown with anonymised data - happy to walk you through more in a call.

  • O-Robotics Autonomous robotics

    Robot fleet control, in your pocket

    A mobile-first control center that lets operators supervise a fleet of autonomous robot sweepers from anywhere on site.

    Took the product from concept to an MVP control app.

  • VRpilot Aviation training

    One clear path to the cockpit

    In VR, every extra click costs a pilot focus, so the path from login to the cockpit had to be clear.

    Experiencing flight procedures went from scattered back-and-forth gestures to one straightforward, logical flow with only a few taps.

  • Diplo Educational Technology

    Learning that keeps students coming back

    Leagues, rewards and a parent dashboard that make 10- to 18-year-olds want to keep studying.

    Used by 400+ students.

“Elitsa had a huge impact on defining both short- and long-term updates to VRpilot UX/UI. … Within days she was able to ask all the right questions, and she was not afraid of asking the questions that forced us to think about previous decisions.”
Daniel Maass VRpilot
“Elitsa has been a valuable team member at GreenCarLane. Both delivering great user research and design, to then lead the development and team. … I highly recommend Elitsa!”

How I can help

Where I add the most value

I join your team as a designer, or own the design of a product end to end.

  • Complex product UX

    Untangling workflows, roles and dependencies so a large product feels coherent to every user.

    User flows · IA · Role & permission models

  • Data-heavy interfaces

    GIS maps, tables, dashboards and operational tools that stay readable under real, heavy amounts of data.

    GIS & mapping UI · Dashboards · Data tables

  • Scalable UI systems

    Extending design systems with contextual components for each project, and keeping Figma in sync as the product grows.

    Domain components · Tokens & theming · Docs & governance

  • Design to implementation

    Close work with developers from early feasibility checks to reviewing the build, so what ships matches what was designed.

    Dev-ready Figma files · States & edge cases · Build reviews & UI bug reports

How I work

From tangled problems to clear solutions

Adapted to your team’s rhythm - discovery sprint, embedded contract or full product design.

  1. Understand

    Short conversations with the people who know the domain, and a close look at the data, rules and constraints. Just enough to get started.

  2. Structure

    Flows, information architecture and role models - agreed before any polished UI.

  3. Prototype, demo, iterate

    AI-assisted prototypes. I demo, gather feedback and refine in quick loops.

  4. Ship and refine

    Dev-ready files or Claude prototypes, depending on the pace and need. Close work with developers and build reviews, then improving what’s live based on real use.

About

Good design doesn’t hide complexity. It organizes it.

A designer who thrives in complicated projects

I’m Elitsa, a UX/UI and product designer based in Denmark with 6+ years of experience across enterprise platforms, SaaS products, robotics and training tools.

I do my best work where there is a lot to understand and synthesize before anything can be designed well - many user roles, dense information, connected workflows, technical limits and business rules that all need to fit together.

Teams bring me in when requirements are still unclear and priorities compete. I have those conversations with product owners, developers and stakeholders, and turn them into decisions the whole team can build on.

I adapt to what the project needs. When the details matter, I work pixel-perfect, down to spacing, states and visual hierarchy. When speed matters, I prototype and design fast with AI, so teams can see, test and decide in days instead of weeks.

What you can expect

Clarity under complexity
I make the structure of a product visible, so the team can see and agree on what matters first.
Full ownership
I lead design end to end and bring structure to ambiguous briefs without needing hand-holding.
Close to engineering
I design with feasibility in mind and stay involved through handoff and testing.
Systems thinking
Every screen is part of a system. I build patterns that scale with the product.
