Senior UX Designer & Product Owner.

Skills & Expertise

WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT FROM ME.

01

DESIGN

I don't just hand off Figma files and walk away. I prefer to own the product from the first round of user research to the final live launch, bridging the gap between complex data and a seamless user experience.

02

NO-CODE & AI DEV

I'm not a traditional programmer, and I don't want to be. As an admitted no-coder, I use Webflow, Lovable, and Claude to rapidly generate production ready apps straight from my designs, entirely bypassing standard dev bottlenecks.

03

AUTOMATION ARCHITECTURE

I hate unnecessary labor, so I build custom, automated workflows using Notion and Pipedream to make APIs talk to each other and keep chaotic projects highly organised.

04

COMMUNICATION

I translate technical yapping for stakeholders and business needs for developers. And I make sure complex ideas actually make sense to everyone, keeping the team aligned without anything getting lost in translation.

05

PROBLEM SOLVING

I thrive on untangling complex logic. Where others see roadblocks, I find the technical workarounds to strip down overengineered requirements and turn them into executable architectures.

06

BRANDING

A product has to look as good as it works. I go beyond standard UX to craft visual languages that don't just look "professional," but actually give a damn about capturing the soul of the business idea.

About

HEY!
I'M MAX.

10+ years of designing experiences taught me just drawing screens is never enough for me. So I started building them. Today I own the entire product journey, taking messy business logic and turning it into production ready apps that actually work.

When I'm not in the office, you can usually find me playing video games, advocating for mental health and human rights, or building my own passion projects from scratch.

Based in Prague. Native in Czech, near-native in English. Used to working with teams worldwide. It's currently 18:57 for me.

PEOPLE WHO PAID THE INVOICES.

We started working with Max when we needed to redesign our website. Given our complete satisfaction, we embarked on several other projects. Max very quickly understood the business logic of our product and was thus a very useful partner (not only a UX designer). I appreciated both their patience and understanding, but also their wide range of skills, ability to respond quickly and deliver results.

Max will surprise you with a wide range of knowledge and the ability to work with it. They are thoughtful, self-reflective and a very quick learner. After all, learning is their greatest asset. I never heard from them that something is not possible. They are always looking for ways how to solve an issue and is not afraid to invest time in learning a lot of new things in order to fulfil a difficult task.
