Myrzan Izimbetov

Product Designer · London

I own problems end to end, from discovery to shipped code.

For six years I've led mobile, fintech and e-commerce products used by millions of people every day. I start with context: where the business is going and why customers choose us. Then I research, design and prototype in production until the metric moves.

Now designing the front-office system of the National Bank of Uzbekistan.

Turned a credit rejection loop into a $4M-a-month revenue stream

Partnered with the banks to pre-score every shopper across all of them in one step, instead of one bank at a time. Became the company’s #1 revenue source.

Turned a $500 experiment into a $100K sale and a funded product team

The product team said video calls would take too long to build. I shipped them in one week with Calendly, Teams and one sales manager. The first month closed a $100K apartment sale.

Built BI Match in one day with AI, from idea to stakeholder decision, then shipped it

How I work
01

Context before pixels

I open every project with one-to-ones across product, engineering and business, so each design decision traces back to a goal.

02

Jobs to be done

I design for the job the customer hires the product to do, and I measure success by whether that job gets done.

03

Clear design ownership

I gather input widely and align with users and partners, then I make the call and own the outcome.

04

Fluent in code

Former front-end engineer. I prototype on our production Storybook through AI, so engineering builds from real components, not specs.

Personal

Born in Nukus, moved to Kazakhstan in 2008, now in London with my wife and our daughter Medina. Moving countries taught me to join any team fast. As a kid I wanted to build things. I still do.
