I had the pleasure of working with Deepak when he joined us as Head of Design. One of our first key priorities was to build a lean, agile design team. As a recruiter who hadn't worked extensively on design roles before, I had many questions—and Deepak was incredibly patient and thoughtful in guiding me through the nuances of design hiring. He leads with clarity, calm communication, and a great deal of patience—qualities that make him an outstanding leader. Deepak also took the initiative to conduct a session on brand perception and drove several impactful design initiatives that elevated our team's work. He’s highly respected by his peers and brings a grounded, calming presence to every interaction. I’d love the opportunity to work with him again in the future.
