Available to hire
I’m Sadikeen Ishfaak, a UI/UX and XR/VR lead with over a decade of experience across overseas digital agencies. I’ve managed teams and designed UI/UX for VR/XR platforms, web, mobile (HTML5), desktop, and IPTV, delivering client-ready interfaces for local and international customers. I’ve worked with headsets like Meta Quest Pro, HoloLens, and Vision Pro, and I’ve built front-end architectures with React and Angular (SPA/MPA), often coordinating with back-end teams. I also configure web servers and lead requirement gathering and client presentations.
My strengths include hard work, adaptability, and leadership. I’ve led UI teams at Cantel Medical and Global Wavenet, interacted with overseas architects during information gathering, and created elegant, usable designs that align with brand and business goals. I’m passionate about R&D, future design visualization, and presenting designs to clients to win projects.
