Led product design as the sole designer, partnering directly with WebOps leadership, engineers, and enterprise client teams to simplify and scale a complex medical logistics platform.

As an embedded design partner, I owned the end-to-end product design process across the WebOps mobile platform. I worked within daily standups, collaborated directly with engineers, presented to executive leadership and client stakeholders, and led the development of a scalable design system. My focus was to clarify workflows, streamline the core experience, and ensure the product supported real-world operational complexity without overwhelming users.

Engagement: Embedded design partnership, working daily with engineering and leadership from discovery through implementation.

Overview

WebOps builds enterprise tools that support sales representatives in managing surgery cases and their associated products. The platform operates within the high-complexity environment of medical logistics, where workflows include product requests, usage tracking, pricing conditions, and sales documentation.

As the product evolved, the mobile experience needed to better reflect the real priorities of sales reps in the field. The goal was not just to add features, but to clarify the product's core purpose and streamline the path to action.

My Role

I served as the sole designer and embedded product partner on the WebOps mobile application, owning the end-to-end product design process from discovery through implementation.

  • Strategic Problem Framing — aligned leadership, product, and engineering around clear goals, constraints, and real-world field workflows.
  • Workflow Simplification — redesigned core case, product, and pricing experiences to reduce cognitive load and eliminate friction.
  • System-Level Thinking — established scalable patterns and component standards for future scaling.
  • Execution & Implementation — partnered daily with engineers, delivered detailed specifications, and supported releases through iteration and refinement.

This engagement required balancing system-level thinking with rapid iteration, ensuring each release strengthened the product foundation rather than increasing complexity.

Platform Simplification & Focus

When I joined WebOps, the mobile app functioned primarily as a navigation hub. The homepage presented a list of modules — Case View, Calendar, Inventory, Reports — requiring sales reps to interpret the system structure before taking action. While functional, this approach reflected internal architecture rather than the sales rep's daily priorities.

Through collaboration with WebOps and their enterprise client, we clarified the platform's core job of tracking and managing active surgery cases and their associated products.

We streamlined the experience by:

  • Refocusing the homepage: shifted from feature navigation to an operational dashboard.
  • Prioritizing case attention: surfaced cases needing attention with clear status and pricing indicators; provided quick access to upcoming surgeries.
  • Reduced noise and complexity: removed secondary items from the primary path to improve speed and clarity.

The redesigned homepage answers one question quickly: "What needs my attention right now?"

Platform transformation: from feature navigation to task-oriented dashboard

With the homepage reframed around operational priorities, the next phase focused on strengthening the core workflows that powered case management: case details, product assignment, and pricing logic. The goal was consistent across each area: reduce cognitive load, make status and next steps obvious, and ensure every flow was fast to use in the field and straightforward to build and maintain.

Case Details Re-Architecture

The old Case Detail screen presented a long, flat checklist, making reps scan, hunt, and remember where actions lived.

I restructured it into a modular layout that supports quick scanning first, with progressive disclosure for depth when needed.

Key improvements included:

  • Clear hierarchy: Case Information stays anchored at the top, with secondary sections grouped by workflow.
  • Progressive disclosure: Expandable modules reduce visual noise while keeping complexity available on demand.
  • Status and readiness cues: Surfaced what's incomplete and what can be done next (without forcing reps to open every section).
  • Action-first affordances: Primary actions like accessing the Sales Order Form are obvious and reachable.

The result was a case view that supports real-world scanning behavior: quick confirmation when things look good, and fast entry points when they don't.

Case details transformation: from a flat checklist to a structured, task-oriented layout

Product Requests as a Guided Flow

Product requests previously required deep navigation and offered little feedback, creating uncertainty and backtracking.

I redesigned it as a guided "shopping" workflow: browse by category, refine the list of products, add with quantity controls, and confirm with confidence.

  • Category-first browsing to match procedure-driven thinking
  • In-flow feedback to prevent duplicate or missed selections
  • Bag model for fast review and edits without losing context
  • Consistent next steps to reduce dead ends

This became a reusable pattern for other "choose and confirm" workflows across the platform.

Product assignment redesign: reduced navigation depth, improved selection clarity, and faster review through a "Bag" model

Pricing That Handles Enterprise Logic

WebOps needed to support complex group pricing rules while keeping the experience predictable for reps moving fast.

I translated that logic into a structured flow: define a group, add items, calculate, review totals, then save.

Design decisions that made this work:

  • Structured grouping: Pricing Groups act as clear containers, making relationships between items visible.
  • Progressive steps: Users move from setup → item selection → calculation → review, without jumping contexts.
  • Built-in validation: Guardrails reduce the risk of incomplete or inconsistent pricing states.
  • Readable totals: Group subtotals and overall totals make outcomes transparent, not buried.

Complexity is inevitable in enterprise systems. Confusion is optional.

Design Systems for Sustainable Growth

As patterns emerged across cases, product selection, and pricing, I formalized them into a cohesive design system to prevent drift and support faster delivery.

The system standardized typography, spacing, layout, containers for structured workflows, and component states so designs stayed consistent and implementations stayed predictable.

Result: less ambiguity for engineering, more cohesion across releases, and a foundation the product could scale on.

Closing

This engagement helped WebOps shift from a feature-heavy mobile app to an operational tool built around real field workflows.
