About

Jacob Piorecki

I’m Jacob, a Lead Product Designer based in Poland with 8+ years building and scaling B2B and B2C SaaS products, including Web3 platforms and data-driven tools. I lead design from an ambiguous problem to a shipped system, with a consistent focus on usability, scalability and measurable business outcomes.

I’ve led design for global teams and clients across the US and Europe: end-to-end experiences for Web3 ecosystems, dashboards and B2B SaaS products, including full design system builds and rebrands. Since 2023 I’ve run Prodular, a studio that leads product design for B2B and B2C SaaS companies in the US, where I manage and mentor a team of three designers.

What I care about: hierarchy over decoration, evidence next to the decision, and colour only where it means something. I like dense products and the discipline they demand.

How I work
  1. 01

    Problem framing

    I start with the questions a person asks in the moment that matters and let those set the information architecture. Screens come last.

  2. 02

    Systems and design ops

    Design systems built from scratch and kept alive, data models drawn before the interface, and tokens engineering can build against without guessing.

  3. 03

    Interface craft

    Dense, high-stakes UI with real hierarchy: typography, tabular numbers, state and motion. I build working React prototypes to test it at real size.

  4. 04

    Leadership

    Three designers managed and mentored, clients and stakeholders handled directly, and delivery owned from ambiguous brief to shipped system.

Experience
  1. Mar 2023 – Present

    Prodular Studio

    Founder & Lead Product Designer

    Embedded design partner to B2B and B2C SaaS companies in the US and EU. I own the work from the first interview to the shipped screen.

    • Hired and lead a team of three designers, and set how the studio hires, runs critique and hands work to engineers.
    • The studio runs AI-first. I prototype in code with AI pair-programming, so a client clicks through a real build instead of reading a flat file.
    • Average engagement runs past 24 months, every client through referral.
  2. Apr 2023 – Dec 2025
