Iām a Transdisciplinary Designer and Researcher
Iām based out of Ahmedabad, India. At present, I am working as a design consultant, primarily focused on UX & Digital Product Design. Alongside, I selectively involve and engage in research projects.
Previously, I worked as a Product Designer at Sitetracker where I was able to contribute my design expertise for Financial Management area of the product. Before that I was working as a UX Designer at Jio Haptik where I primarily worked on Interakt and helped in its successful zero to one journey.
I hold M.Des in New Media Design from National Institute of Design, India. Before that I completed my B.Tech in Information & Technology from Charusat University, India.
Outside of work, I obsess over stationary and desk setups. I geek out on cameras and films. I take lot of selfies. I recently joined Improv theatre and it has been satisfying, the best thing about Improv is, it boosts creativity and keeps me in the present moment.
Vaibhav was our first design hire in India, and he has been so great to work with! Vaibhav is an excellent visual designer, with a passion for understanding how to make our products work the best for our customers. He's easy to work with and knows how to plug in and get to work. I can't wait to see what he will accomplish throughout his career!
Seth Richardson
Senior Product Designer, Sitetracker
As the inaugural Product Designer at Sitetracker India, Vaibhav Solanki was instrumental in translating our US-based culture and processes to our new entity. His eagerness to learn, combined with his multimedia design experience, fueled his understanding of our product.
Vaibhav's growth mindset and exceptional visual design skills navigated regional challenges, ensuring the successful rollout of our design-first approach in India. He's a flexible collaborator and an asset to any team, and his impact at Sitetracker is significant. I eagerly await his future achievements.

Vaibhav has been a pleasure to work with. He has a very inquisitive mind capable of coming up with creative solutions instead of the straightforward ones. He is a designer that works best when he has the freedom/space to explore various possibilities.

Co-Founder and SVP Growth & Evangelism
Designing for a high velocity SAAS product is tricky. As the sole designer, Vaibhav played an important role in building the product not only by his artistry but also by asking the right questions. All this while paving the way for long term impact.
An unwavering advocate for users, his polite demeanour coupled with the ability to defend his ideas through research make him a great designer not just by vocation but passion.
He is an asset to any organisation he joins and I wish him the very best!
