About

I’m Furkan Efe Dikmen, a senior product designer and systems-minded builder based in Berlin. I love tackling complex, ambitious problems end-to-end—turning fragmented ideas into market-ready products, clear design systems, and experiences that work in the real world (from construction, mobility, and retail to aerospace glass cockpits at Turkish Aerospace).

I’ve contributed across product design, safety-critical UX, and founding/developing tech concepts, including co-founding a deep-tech startup and prototyping AI-native approaches. Whether I’m leading interface work, designing for usability and accessibility, or mapping strategy into execution, I focus on measurable outcomes, strong product thinking, and collaboration with engineering to bring ideas to life.
