As the COVID-19 pandemic hit lots of people quite hard, I have build a website with junior, mid and senior jobs and resources in the design space and much more: felixhornoiu.com/pages/remote-job-boards
In the past 11 years built and led design operations and teams from large scale corporations to fast paced startups.
I help products meet their goal, improve usability, creating and improving new features, research, run user testing sessions, delivering multi platform experiences from mobile apps to highly transactional products.
Critical thinker who loves complex challenges and translating technology, user needs and business requirements into end-to-end solutions.
Knowledgeable in HTML, CSS, JS, React components, backend technologies. Always happy to learn more!
Worked with clients like Warner Brothers, Google, Facebook, H&M, The Economist, BASF, EY, Microsoft, Coop as well as some interesting startups like Perfect Play, Beamery, Peerpoint, Leakbot and Ordo Pay.
When I’m not designing I train, cycle around London with my MTB bike 🚴, cook, read nutrition & behaviour psychology books, take photos of the sky, chat about architecture and tiny houses!

For many years I found this can ease up the conversation and create an extra bridge between stakeholders, developers and users.
