About

About 20 years of shaping how products feel to use.

For about 20 years I've worked in Israeli high-tech as a product designer, mostly UX/UI: turning complex, technical products into interfaces people can actually pick up and trust, from real-time audio plugins to dense security dashboards.

Lately that work looks different. After a stretch focused on my own projects at Juicy Patterns, I went end to end on a product myself: the UX/UI, and then the actual development, using Claude Code. Being able to build what I design changes how I design. I work faster, more precisely, and with a real feel for what an interface will cost to build.

I bring that same craft to the teams I work with: product and UX/UI design, whether that's shaping a rough idea into a first interface or tightening an existing product, and, when it's useful, hands on help getting from design to working code.

I also teach this. My workshops walk founders and teams through building a real interface, from a raw idea to a first working version, using the tools and habits that actually hold up once the AI hype settles.

If you need a fractional UX/UI designer who can take a rough idea to a polished, working interface, I'd love to talk.

Selected work

Two worlds, one way of working.

What people say

Some words from the people I've worked with.

Omer was exactly what our cyber security startup needed. He brought fresh innovation to our product design and turned our complex technology into something customers loved. He really gets both the technical security side and what businesses need, and helped us to stand out in the market. He came up with creative solutions for our customers. Highly recommend working with Omer to any startup!

I have worked with Juicy Patterns, and they have been an asset to our team. Their UX design skills are unparalleled, and they are always ready to take on new challenges. Their ability to identify user needs and develop products that meet those needs is incredibly impressive. They collaborate well with product managers, but also knows how to take charge when necessary. I would highly recommend them.

Working with Omer has always been a breath of fresh air. He brings a rare mix of strategic depth and creative clarity, someone who can jump into complex projects, simplify what matters, and move both the client and the team forward. We've collaborated on several strategic design projects, and each time Omer added tremendous value, from framing the challenge to shaping the experience and guiding the conversation toward meaningful outcomes. He's not just a designer; he's a true partner in thinking, alignment, and delivery.

Working with Omer on Datorama's product discovery and design was a turning point. He came in, listened deeply, and helped us uncover what truly mattered to our users. The process felt structured yet creative, full of energy and insight. Omer doesn't just make things look good; he makes sure they make sense, connect to the vision, and move the business forward.

I highly recommend Omer as a workshop leader. Over three well-planned days, he took our team through exercises that brought clarity and fresh ideas. We went in feeling unsure and came out with confidence, a clear plan, and actionable steps for a key project. He's great at bringing people together and getting real results. Get him on board, your next big breakthrough could be just around the corner.

Thank you Omer for a wonderful workshop. We held a design sprint workshop for our founding team. Omer was able to focus our attention on the most worthy goals, help us analyze our options, and plan a path going forward. I would recommend any team to take some time out for this.
