Occasional thoughts on design, products, and everything in between.
I like making cool things with cool people and always try to be involved throughout the process, from initial sketches to final deployment,
working at the beloved IBM Security, ReaQta.

I’m Mohamed Samy, a product designer based in Amsterdam, currently working on AI and security products at IBM.
My work sits at the intersection of complex systems, human judgment, and trust. I design experiences for enterprise environments where decisions matter, mistakes are costly, and clarity is essential. Today, that means shaping AI-assisted workflows for identity and access management; helping users move faster without losing control or accountability.
I enjoy working on problems that are ambiguous by nature and require careful framing before solutions emerge. From early discovery and alignment to detailed interaction design, I aim to create experiences that feel intentional, understandable, and grounded in real user needs especially in high-stakes domains like security and infrastructure.
Outside of the work itself, I value collaboration, facilitation, and thoughtful critique. I care deeply about how teams arrive at decisions, not just what they ship.
