As a consultant for a space-tech startup, I supported the redesign of the USAF’s Satellite Tracking Dashboard by creating wireframes, design systems, and stakeholder surveys, collaborating with developers to deliver optimized upgrades for military satellite tracking screens.

Project Overview: Dashboard + Design System

I got a crash course in LEO, MEO, and HEO orbits while enhancing display tech for the USAF’s satellite tracking screens. Partnering with a space-tech startup, I helped elevate the design of the USAF Satellite Tracking Dashboard and its Design System, all while orbiting around deadlines.

Key Contributions

Contributed to the creation of a comprehensive Design System Library alongside developers and project managers, collaboratively identifying key design patterns and visual elements to enhance accessibility, contrast, and information hierarchy for military satellite tracking screens.
Led research under restricted conditions by implementing low-tech surveys and remote stakeholder feedback loops, addressing the usability needs of teams without internet or on-site access.
Created wireframes and high-fidelity prototypes tailored for LEO, MEO, and HEO orbit tracking, focusing on optimized contrast ratios and intuitive navigation for seamless satellite monitoring.

The secure and confidential nature of Air Force government projects prevents me from sharing my UX research, processes, and wireframes publicly. However, I’d be happy to discuss this fascinating project in more depth—please feel free to reach out!
