About Ronak Barhanpurkar

Senior Associate Manager - Automobile UX at Maruti Suzuki India Limited

As a Senior/Lead Designer, I’ve spent years navigating the intersection of user needs, complex technical constraints, and business strategy. Over the course of my career, I've realized that the most rewarding part of my role isn't just shipping great products—it’s helping other designers grow. I am applying to be an ADPList mentor to share the practical, real-world frameworks, leadership strategies, and stakeholder communication skills that aren't taught in bootcamps or universities. Design is more than just interfaces and aesthetics; it’s about solving complex problems, building meaningful experiences, and driving strategic business value. Throughout my journey in the design industry, navigating everything from complex workflows to cross-functional stakeholder collaboration, I have realized how crucial guidance is to a designer's growth. I am applying to be a Design Mentor to share practical, real-world insights, bridge the gap between academic design and industry reality, and empower the next generation of designers to find their voice, elevate their craft, and build impactful careers
