Hi, I am Mustafa, a Product Designer based in Austin, Texas.

I have 6 years of experience in designing highly complex consumer and B2B software. My last role was as a Senior Product Designer at Motive, where I solved problems related to driver identification and vehicle maintenance for the largest fleets in North America. I have also built and led a team of over 10 product designers while developing a Notion competitor at Educative. I am currently actively looking for summer internships for 2025!

Currently, MSIS Student @ UT Austin.
