Nune Vardanyan

AI-first designer, building production-ready applications withClaudeClaude Code.

I work at the intersection of users, business, product logic, and AI systems, translating between all four.

About

AI-first is not a buzzword for me, it's how I operate. My day starts with Claude Code: I open it before anything else, check my repo, review uncommitted changes, and push to GitLab before a single Figma file is open.

Claude is how I think through problems, prompt components into existence, iterate in the browser, and ship features in hours, not weeks.

My niche is cybersecurity, which is going through a fundamental AI transformation. I'm building at the center of that shift, embedded with engineering, shipping alongside them.

"Nune is a top-performing designer who made an immediate impact from day one after joining my team. She operates as a true AI-native designer, equally technical and creative, with the mindset of a product builder. Time and again, she has delivered high-quality work that drives meaningful outcomes and impact to our organization. What sets Nune apart is her proactive approach and exceptional speed, combined with a strong sense of ownership. She is always prepared, deeply empathetic toward end users, and consistently focused on creating value. I can confidently trust her with the most complex challenges knowing she will quickly navigate ambiguity, support cross-functional efforts, and deliver results that elevate both product and engineering teams. Nune cares deeply about doing things the right way. She is thoughtful and intentional in her work, grounding her designs in both qualitative insights and quantitative data. Her ability to translate research into intuitive and impactful experiences is a rare strength. Her willingness to adapt, learn new technology and then share is extremely admirable. Any team would be lucky to have Nune. She is an immediate 10x value add and a force multiplier for those around her."
