Consultations from Yuriy Shiryaev

I specialize in designing product experiences and interactions, primarily focusing on fintech, transportation, and commerce projects. My expertise spans both front-end and back-end web development, as well as production and design process organization.

If you need a consultation, we can talk about:

Interfaces

• understand the needs of clients and your customer,
• figure out how to design the interface,
• identify complex areas and possibly simplify them,
• how to code or hand off design to development.

   

  — How do I code in three columns? I've only recently started, I don't know how to create prototypes. The art director doesn't like something, what can I change?

  — Let's take a look.

Banking & Fintech

• explore the product together, understand what bring value and what is not,
• review the interface and scenarios,
• what can be simplified and what cannot (compliance, development, or other constraints).

   

  — We launched the website, but customers aren't coming. Customers keep skipping important fields in the scenario. What should we do?

  — Let's take a look

Process & Challenges

• let's look at design together (not just fintech, any), choose fonts, and do some wireframing on Zoom,
• talk about career path,
• communication issues, organization, or design managment.

   

  — Can you help beginners? What about choosing a profession? Team tasks? Had a disagreement with the client, what to do? Salary issues :( Can I talk to you about that too?

  — Yes! Feel free to reach out.

Feedback

The most important thing for me is the person. I always consider others, but what new insights can the interlocutor bring, how they guide and in what form they speak, and most importantly — whether I feel calmer knowing if I'm heading in the right direction after the conversation or not, whether I feel that some key has been found — this is important.

Some questions remained unanswered, some answers shed light on questions, but it's not Yuri's task to tell me how to live) For me, Yuri is someone with whom it's good to think, and after that, I feel a step closer to myself and to the place where I feel I need to be)

I went to Yuri when I didn't know which career path to choose, when I didn't know what I thought about moving, when I was torn between freelancing and a permanent job, when I wanted to learn a new field in UI/UX, and Yuri gave me a task, when I was stuck in current projects. With any question, personal or professional, I went to talk knowing that it would be confidential. I advise you to trust and see

Sofya Sokolova, the Crosby Studios

I've been wanting to dip my toes into interface design for a while. But where to start? There are so many courses and programs out there. It's hard to figure out what's better, what's worse. Who has experience and a desire to teach, and who has just finished the same course themselves.

And I decided that nothing beats a baptism by fire. Besides, I received a suitable order. It was the development of an interface extension for the Chrome browser. I knew nothing except that Figma exists and it's convenient to use.

A familiar designer recommended me to contact Yuri because he had relevant experience. We scheduled a call. During the hour-long call, I learned many tricks about working in Figma that they teach in courses costing 100k a year. I especially want to mention the clear, punctual feedback in a format convenient for me.

I delivered the design layout to the client and received payment.

My baptism by fire wouldn't have happened without Yuriy. Thank you!

If you feel that I can be helful to you, please email me or reach out on Telegram.

It would be great if you could provide a link to the design or some context. This way, I'll understand if I can help and if so, how best to do it. If I realize that I can't help, I'll let you know right away.

Consultation costs — € 40 per hour.
