Big Nerd helps startups, SaaS companies, and enterprises bring their ideas to market with speed, clarity, and confidence. Our focus is on UX and UI design, product design, product development, and AI-powered workflows that accelerate delivery without sacrificing quality or craft. We also offer training for both aspiring and tenured UX and Product Design professionals.
With over 20 years of experience in user experience design, user interface design, and product design and development, we understand how to turn a concept into a dev-ready, user-tested prototype. From rapid prototyping and user testing to UX strategy and fractional product design leadership, we provide end-to-end solutions that align teams and delight users.
Dan Olsavsky started Big Nerd Design with a simple belief: great products can be built fast when you combine AI-first workflows with human-centered design. After more than 20 years in UX/UI design and product development, he wanted to create a space where startups and growing organizations could get clear, user-focused products into the world faster.
Throughout his career, Dan has partnered with organizations of all sizes — from Fortune 500 companies to small startups with big ideas. The common thread has always been the same: deliver quality quickly while keeping the user at the center. Big Nerd Design is his way of bringing experience, network, and passion for problem-solving together to help teams launch products that truly resonate with their users.
