About Namita Nisal

Senior Product Designer at Cisco-Meraki

I'm a Product Designer with 7+ years of experience designing B2B, SaaS and Enterprise products. Currently, I'm designing interactions and intuitive workflows at Cisco - Meraki for a web-based Enterprise product that provides our users a dashboard to configure and monitor devices and traffic on their network. Previously, I led design at Nokia - Deepfield for a web based Enterprise product in the Network Analytics and DDoS Protection domain.

I regularly collaborate with stakeholders, product managers and developers to deliver features. I'm a design generalist and hence am involved in the end-to-end user experience design process starting from gathering requirements to visual design of the product. I enjoy solving complex problems with technical constraints while keeping user needs and business goals in mind.

In my role, I have had the opportunity to mentor numerous junior designers, and I also mentor designers outside of my 9-5. It gives me a sense of fulfillment and I aspire to help as many upcoming designers as possible and connect them to relevant opportunities and resources. Mentoring through ADPlist will give me a more structured way of doing what I already do and love to do.

“I met with Namita to discuss my work experience as a UX & Product Designer, and she provided me with excellent insight after hearing more about my background as a first career designer who started as an IC and moved into being a team lead & manager. She was very friendly, an engaged listener and asked great questions to gain a better understanding of my work.”
