SEEKING WORK | UX/UI & web design

Portfolio: https://seanw.org/

Live example projects: https://checkbot.io/ https://inclusivecolors.com/

Location: Edinburgh, UK and remote (I’m used to time zone differences and async work)

---

I help startups with the UX/UI and web design of their products. This includes web apps, websites, landing pages, copywriting, and I can assist with frontend development where needed. My background of launching my own products and being a full stack developer helps me create practical designs that balance usability, aesthetics, development effort, and performance. I work to fixed price quotes for self-contained projects.

---

The best live example of my work is Checkbot (https://checkbot.io/), a browser extension that tests websites for SEO/speed/security problems. The entire project is my own work including coding the extension itself, UX/UI design, website design (the homepage is optimised to load in 0.7 seconds, 0.3MB data transferred), marketing, website copy, and website articles on web best practices.

[ Rated 4.9/5, 80K+ active users, 100s of paying subscribers ]

I have 10+ years of experience, including a PhD in software verification and 5+ years working for myself helping over 25 companies including Just Eat, Triumph Motorcycles and Fogbender (YC W22). See my website for testimonials, portfolio and more: https://seanw.org

Skills: Figma, Sketch, TypeScript, JavaScript, Vue, Hugo, Jekyll, WordPress, Django, HTML/CSS, Bootstrap, Tailwind, OCaml, Java, Python, C, analytics, WCAG accessibility, website SEO/speed optimisation.

Note: For large projects, my partner usually assists me in the background (I’m working on starting a design studio with her in the future)

---

Email sw@seanw.org with a short description of 1) your project 2) how you think I can help 3) the business outcome you’re looking for and 4) any deadlines. I can get back to you in one working day to arrange a call to discuss a quote and how we can work together!

Hi there! I'm Nitin, a software engineer with a passion for AI/ML, computer vision, and automotive software.

I’ve spent some time at Bosch developing real-time ADAS applications and optimizing perception pipelines, and I'm now deep into research at NC State—exploring information bottlenecks in deep learning and contributing to open-source projects like SGLang. I've also led projects in robotic navigation using Visual SLAM and ROS, fueling my interest in autonomous systems. Lately, I've been diving into AI agents and exploring innovative applications across different domains.

I'm eager to collaborate on challenging projects in robotics, intelligent systems, or any cutting-edge tech. If you're working on something exciting in these areas, let's connect!
