Project Context
VIDA is Indonesia's leading digital identity company, providing identity verification and digital signature solutions to enterprises across Southeast Asia. As the company scaled, the need for a self-service platform became critical to support growth without linear headcount increases.
I joined this initiative as both Product Design Lead and acting Product Manager, responsible for end-to-end design strategy while also driving product decisions and stakeholder alignment.
The Problem
VIDA's growth was bottlenecked by a high-touch, manual onboarding process that required significant sales and support involvement for every new customer. The company's OKR was ambitious: scale to 1,000+ customers without proportionally increasing headcount.
This meant transforming the entire customer journey from sales-led to product-led. The challenge was complex — enterprise customers had varying needs, compliance requirements were strict, and the existing flow had zero self-service capabilities.
We needed to design a platform that could handle everything from account creation to API integration, while maintaining the trust and security standards expected in the identity verification industry.
My Contribution
- Led end-to-end design strategy from discovery to delivery
- Conducted 15+ customer interviews to map pain points and opportunities
- Facilitated cross-functional workshops with Sales, Product, and Engineering
- Designed and tested 3 major iterations of the onboarding flow
- Established design system components for the new platform
- Acted as PM to drive prioritization and roadmap decisions
