Simran Chawla

I've been working in product design since 2018, and I currently serve as a Senior Product Designer at Chase, where I've been since October 2023. I work on the car loans team, and I'm really proud of how we've grown this segment of the business during my time here. My work involves iterative design processes, where I'm typically working in Figma, wireframing and prototyping. I work very closely with business stakeholders to understand what the business needs, and then tie that to what users need from our application. I create interfaces and interaction patterns that best meet those goals and get the best of both worlds. Often these things are hypotheses, and we'll be testing them in the real world through A-B testing or taking it to users to validate our assumptions and learn more about what works best for them. Throughout my career, I've worked across different industries including telecom, advertising, and technology, as well as on a social card game for teenagers. I've been on different types of teams, from scrappy to more well-established, which has been really interesting. Outside of the corporate world, I'm co-founder and design lead on a game company that's very focused on social impact, influencing mindset without it ever feeling preachy, just creating fun experiences that change how teenagers see things like social skills. I'm passionate about design that helps change mindsets and positive behaviors, and I'm looking to continue in growth design moving forward.
