Workfront
Workfront is a cloud-based work management platform that helps organizations plan, manage, and collaborate on their projects. When I joined, it was known as AtTask, then rebranded to Workfront, and was eventually acquired by Adobe.
At Workfront, I worked with a product manager to design new features for the product based on the company’s roadmap and feedback we gathered from our customers. I then worked with developers and quality teams to ensure their successful delivery.
My role
UX design
Prototyping
User testing & research
Android widget
One of my first projects at Workfront (then called AtTask) was to design an Android widget for logging time into the mobile app. I created mockups, tested them, and redesigned some areas of the app while working with the remote Android team in Armenia.
Document approvals wireframes
I created wireframes and a prototype for improving document approvals using the UX Team’s pattern library. We tested with internal employees and then conducted remote tests with our users.
Document management system
I worked with a product manager to add folder sharing to our document management system.
Chart design
During part of my time at Workfront, I led UX in the tool’s reporting area. I worked to improve the existing charts and reports to help users better understand their data. Simplifying this chart included removing unnecessary colors, drop-shadows, text bolding, applying smarter sorting, and reducing the background color.
Report delivery workflow
To optimize the speed of report delivery, we worked on a system of caching large reports. This complicated project required working across all areas of the company, including UX, product, development, and architecture.
