Profile: https://flows.cv/rafaelcabrita

I am a passionate UX/UI Designer and Frontend Developer dedicated to crafting seamless, scalable, and AI-powered digital experiences that captivate users and empower teams. With over 10 years of experience in both design and development, I specialize in robust design systems, comprehensive usability testing, and workflow automation. My work lies at the intersection of design and technology, where I want to harness AI to transform complex challenges into opportunities for innovation, collaboration, and efficiency.

At The Loop, I advanced into a leadership role as Head of UX, steering the UX vision for LoopOS—an ecosystem of applications set to revolutionize the second-hand retail experience. In this capacity, I led a diverse, cross-functional team, developed a scalable design system, and implemented usability frameworks that significantly boosted user engagement. My strategic approach ensured that every design decision aligned with both business goals and user needs.

Recognizing that effective UX transcends user interfaces, I identified critical inefficiencies in internal operations affecting QA, research, and product development. Through extensive research and workflow analysis, I engineered AI-driven automation tools that transformed manual, repetitive tasks into streamlined, intelligent processes. I introduced an AI-powered task automation tool for the QA team, which generated structured tasks and auto-created test cases based on predefined parameters. By integrating an internal database of product requirements, I enhanced the tool to prompt clarifying questions, ensuring task accuracy and minimizing last-minute changes.

My journey is fueled by continuous improvement and relentless innovation. I see every design challenge as a chance to push boundaries and create transformative solutions. Whether collaborating with multidisciplinary teams or leading projects from ideation to execution, I craft solutions that meet user needs and drive strategic goals.

By harnessing AI, I unlock efficiencies that redefine workflows. My vision is to integrate AI into UX and beyond—boosting team productivity while enhancing product usability. I want to empower teams, automate processes, and deliver intuitive experiences that drive business success. If you’re looking for a UX professional with a robust technical foundation and a passion for AI-driven innovation, let’s connect. Together, we can build smarter, more efficient digital experiences.
