Diego Munar

Product Designer with an illustrator's hands. I work on fintech products from systems to pixels.

About

Senior
Product Designer.

6 years across fintech and enterprise SaaS. I care about design systems that hold up at scale, research that actually changes decisions, and interfaces that don't make people feel lost.

Approach

How I work.

01

Research changes decisions

73 interviews across two markets

I don’t run research to validate what’s already decided. I run it when there’s a real question, and the findings actually change the product.

02

Systems before screens

Design tokens. Cross-platform parity.

Most “design systems” are component libraries with a logo. I work on the foundations: tokens, naming, governance, the boring parts that make everything else possible.

03

Pixel craft still matters

Alignment. Spacing. Contrast.

Strategy without craft is a deck. Senior design means knowing when to argue with the PM about scope and when to nudge a button two pixels to the right.

04

AI tooling, used pragmatically

Cursor, Claude Code, Figma MCP

I use AI as a design partner, not a replacement. It’s how I close the gap between Figma intent and production code.

Illustration

Other things I make.

Procreate is where I think without a brief. No stakeholders, no metrics, no roadmap. Just paint.

Stay a while.

Or just play. I'll be here.
