Partnering with Linktera

EN

More than a vendor, a design partner.

Working with Linktera wasn't about project deliveries — it was about growing together.

Over 5 years, we co-created more than 10 financial products with a deep focus on usability, scalability, and strategic design.

This was a long-term collaboration where I worked not just as a designer, but as a thinking partner embedded in product teams.

My Role Across Projects

Across these projects, I led or supported key areas like:

  
      User research & needs mapping
    
      Design System Development
    
      Web Portal and Mobile App Design
    
      Brand & Visual Identity
    
      Marketing Site Design
    
      Agile-based design support
    
      Developer-friendly modular design thinking
    
      Design team establishment and leadership

This was a collaboration with a strategic design partner — someone fully involved in the process, contributing to decisions, and thinking long-term. Don’t think of me as “just a freelancer.”

This is a deliberate choice I’ve made:
I don’t work project-by-project — I work story-by-story.

I join the team, take ownership of the process, and co-own the outcomes.

  
      Key aspects of this partnership:
    
      A process-oriented, not project-based approach
    
      Reusable UX/UI systems across multiple products
    
      Design integrated into the full product lifecycle
    
      Strategic contribution beyond visuals, evolving over time
    
      Design became a shared mindset within the team

What They Say

    Kudret handled the end-to-end design process in a complicated project and took action on many overlooked areas.

    Kudret is an excellent person, a good friend, and a really good mentor. He was a pleasure to work with and I learned a lot from him. He deserves all the best.
