About
I’m Satheswaran (Sath), a product designer based in Aldershot, England, with fourteen years across fintech, insurance, banking and travel. Since August 2025 I have been Lead Product Designer for Trading at Xceptor, after more than three years designing across its reconciliation, dataset and post-trade products.
I work with product, engineering and sales from north-star prototyping to validation with real users. I care most about accessible, inclusive design that holds up under real usage, not just in a review.
