Felipe Ruiz is a designer and manager with 19 years of experience in digital, specializing in UX, product leadership, and startups. He has launched products, led teams, and scaled design operations to achieve business goals.
As a versatile designer, I bring a deep curiosity and expertise across user experience, coding, management, and entrepreneurship.
Over my 19-year career as a UX Designer, I’ve delivered impactful projects for major brands, leading UX, Product Design, User Research, and Front-end teams. I’ve launched over ten B2B and B2C products, created three Design Systems, hired and managed over 30 design professionals, and implemented a robust design management methodology including rituals, documentation, and best practices.
With nine years of coding experience, I’ve developed products end-to-end using Ruby, React Native, Firebase, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, TypeScript, React, and NEXT.JS. I coded design systems for scale-ups and my ventures, handled servers, configured databases, and built infrastructure to deepen my product development insight.
With 12 years of team management experience and an Executive MBA, I focus on driving team performance and aligning business goals with stakeholder expectations. My expertise covers financial modeling and strategic decision-making, and I continuously expand my knowledge in strategy and marketing through research and reading.
My entrepreneurial experiences in digital health and live commerce bring a practical understanding of building products and services that scale. In digital health, I created a SaaS solution that automated patient journeys, serving clients across nine Brazilian states. My latest venture, a live-commerce marketplace for collectibles, deepens my insights into product-market fit and operational scaling.
As the founder of Moxen, I created a live-commerce platform where SMBs connect with buyers in real time. I oversee product development, strategy, and growth, scaling engagement and business impact.
