AltViz is an enterprise technology company, developing an Intelligent Automation Platform. I joined the two co-founders as the first employee and helped build up the company. I had to be a very adaptable team member and develop a variety of skills in different roles. Primarily, I am the solo Product Designer, crafting the user experience and interface for all of our products. Alongside this, I am a Product Owner responsible for delivering new products and features to our customers.
