ABOUT

About Me

I bridge the gap between UX vision and business impact.

I'm Akshay Dinesh, a UX Leader at ConnectWise with over 10 years of experience designing intuitive, scalable SaaS products for the Business Process Automation and MSP/TSP ecosystem. I've led end-to-end UX for flagship platforms like Asio™, BrightGauge™, and CPQ™ — each serving thousands of managed service providers globally.

 

My work sits at the intersection of user research, design systems, and AI-integrated workflows. I believe great UX leadership is about empowering teams to build with clarity and confidence — not just creating beautiful interfaces.

"My goal as a UX Manager is simple: build design teams that don't just ship pixels — they move metrics, influence strategy, and advocate for users at every decision table."

FUTURE-READY THINKING

My Approach to AI-UX Work Process

AI isn't replacing designers — it's redefining what great design leadership

means. Here's how I think about, design for, and manage teams building AI-

powered products.

About My Strategy→

📙

Human-Centred AI Workflows

I design AI interactions where users stay in control — every suggestion, automation, and alert is built around trust, transparency, and explainability. SideKick™ was built on these principles.

🥨

AI Interaction Patterns

From prompt UX to progressive disclosure of AI outputs, I've developed and documented interaction patterns that reduce cognitive load and increase confidence in AI-powered decisions.

🔍

Research for AI Products

AI products require new research methods — mental model studies, trust calibration sessions, error recovery testing. I've adapted traditional UX research practices for AI-integrated SaaS environments.

🙎🏻‍♂️

Managing AI Design Teams

Upskilling designers to think probabilistically, document AI edge cases, and collaborate with data scientists requires new management approaches. I'm building these playbooks actively.

🧮

My AI-UX Design CORE Framework

C

Context

Understand the usage scenario. Map user mental models around AI. E.g. Users are not adopting the new AI feature on our product.

O

Obstacles

Identify friction points in the user journey. What do users trust? What scares them? E.g. Slow generation of AI responses from the chat bot.

R

Resolution

Define fixes by validating with actual users. E.g. Test the response generation with users with different AI models and find the reliable one among them.

E

Evaluation

Review the results after turning the insights into features. E.g. Average response time reduced by 20% with the new AI model used on chat bot.
