Mariana Lemos

I recently worked as a Principal/ Staff UX Designer with the UX Design team at Accenture, a global consulting company. I operated on three distinctive projects:

• My last client project was a BTC platform in a multinational beverage corporation. In four months, I reshaped all design technical documentation, reducing development work by an estimated average of 30%.
• I was seen as a reference for Design Documentation by the team. I led them to build assets and also gave several trainings to a team of more than 40 designers. We reduced from two weeks to four days the time spent setting up and updating design environments in client projects.
• I was the leader of two Design Guilds in the company's Design Chapter: UX Strategy and Notion. We promote content and events and help spread acknowledgement bringing documentation and strategy maturity into projects.

I have 19 years of market practice, 12 of which are in the design domain. I have extensive experience in several disciplines, such as UX/UI, graphic design, marketing, illustration, and sales. I have a postgraduate degree in UX Strategic Management from 2024 and a Bachelor's in Advertising since 2018.

When I entered the UX field in 2020, I worked with small regional startups. A year later, I joined a multinational consulting company. I had the opportunity to perform in completely diverse environments. Each project was a new challenge.

I learned how to adapt to each project setting, understand its needs while balancing between user and business requirements, working fast and iteratively with product managers and developers on the most effective solution to solve the product's problem at hand. And, at the same time, applying the best UX processes and practices to deliver to the client and team's value, I not only the job description I was given.

I've worked with clients in media, retail, utilities, supply chain, natural resources, and consumer goods industries. My main competencies rely on user experience, customer experience, digital design, UX technical support, research, design documentation, storytelling, data visualization, data-driven design, information architecture, and strategic design.

I love to study and apply concepts in my life. I've learned that studying and living diverse experiences build a repertoire, which makes my life more exciting and my work more remarkable.

I found my devotion in strategy and research. Aside from my repertoire, to solve problems, craft, and search for opportunities, I try to relax my mind often. I do random hobbies, like reading, watching movies and TV shows, swimming, drawing, running, seeing my friends, travelling, going to parties, and some more!

I'm enthusiastic about studying human behaviour and technology and acting in these roles as a driver of change. I look into research and design widely across subjects and transform insights into tangible values for clients and users.
