From defining the initial user experience and design foundations to scaling the platform alongside product and engineering, I owned the end-to-end design of the product. This included UX strategy, information architecture, visual systems, and design operations—ensuring the product could grow quickly without sacrificing usability or consistency. As Postal scaled, the product experience became a core differentiator in a competitive market, supporting customer adoption, retention, and enterprise credibility. That foundation ultimately contributed to Postal’s successful acquisition by Sendoso. Postal is the leading intelligent gifting platform that helps thousands of businesses increase their pipeline, retain customers, and reward employees. The platform and its global marketplace enable customers to automate direct mail, manage branded company swag, and send personalized gifts, all while centralizing cost and reducing waste. ### UI/UX Design Lead @ Postal Jan 2019 – Jan 2023 ### UI/UX Designer with Xcentium @ XCentium Jan 2018 – Jan 2019 | Santa Cruz, Ca Technology Skillset: Photoshop, Sketch, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, SCSS - Creating and optimizing complex user flows for select clients - Subject Matter Expert for both Mobile experiences and Responsive design - Developing extremely intuitive and engaging experiences for users - Collaborating with multiple engineering, product management, visual design and marketing team members, for on-time delivery of web assets, etc for clients - Designing visual mockups and prototypes from wireframes - Delivering on-time and high quality final design production-ready assets for development - Producing high-quality user interfaces and visual designs, from concept to launch for web and mobile applications ### UI Lead @ TextRecruit, an iCIMS Company Jan 2017 – Jan 2019 Technology Skillset: Photoshop, Sketch, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, SCSS, Wordpress - Subject Matter Expert for both Mobile experiences and Responsive design - Developing extremely intuitive and engaging experiences for users - Collaborating with multiple engineering, product management, visual design and marketing team members, for on-time delivery of web assets, etc for clients - Designing visual mockups and prototypes from wireframes - Delivering on-time and high quality final design production-ready assets for development - Producing high-quality user interfaces and visual designs, from concept to launch for web and mobile applications ### Senior UI/UX Designer @ Falafel Software Inc Jan 2007 – Jan 2017 | Scotts Valley, CA Oversaw all design aspects of a Falafel's products and services, including product design, user experience design, and web/mobile design. -Created and optimized complex user flows -Performed all writing compliant HTML and CSS with outstanding ability -SME in Mobile experiences and responsive design -Developed intuitive and engaging experiences for multiple products -Collaborated with multiple product managers, visual designers, and engineers -Designed visual mockups and prototypes from wireframes and delivered final design production-ready assets for development -Produced high-quality user interfaces and visual designs, from concept to launch for web and mobile applications Technologies used: Photoshop, Sketch, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Photography, Videography ## Education ### State College of Florida-Manatee-Sarasota ## Contact & Social - LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/mattkurvin - Portfolio: https://postal.io/ - Portfolio: https://facebook.com/photo.php?pid=30417948&id=1410363576&ref=nf#%2Fpages%2FNew-Perspective-Photography%2F90882276678%3Fref%3Dts --- Source: https://flows.cv/mattkurvin JSON Resume: https://flows.cv/mattkurvin/resume.json Last updated: 2026-04-13
