Product UX/UI for B2B SaaS, startups to enterprise

Product designer & AI builder for B2B SaaS teams

Hi, I'm Brendan, a SaaS product and UX designer with a B.A. in Interaction Design and 9+ years of experience. I help teams ship clearer flows, modern UI, and consistent components.

Speak with Brendan
Brendan Ho, senior SaaS product designer
“Brendan is that incredibly rare designer who produces high-caliber design while remaining egoless and collaborative. The only reason we’re ending the engagement is that our devs can’t keep up, so I look forward to working with Brendan again in the future – and will miss him in the meantime!”

Struggling with these product problems?

Confusing UX & UI

Users can’t figure things out quickly, so they bail before they ever reach the value.

Devs tackling UX alone

Developers patch surface-level UI issues while the flows that need real UX expertise stay stuck.

Design that looks dated

An aging UI erodes trust and makes the product look less competitive than it really is.

Can’t afford a full-time designer

As much as you need a design overhaul, hiring a full-time designer just isn’t feasible for your budget right now.

Unreliable designers in the past

Previous designers dropped the ball with mediocre work and missed deadlines. You need someone more reliable.

Messy Figma files

Your files are difficult to navigate, components are inconsistent, and developers struggle to find the latest designs.

Yep, I’ve seen these problems before.

The good news? These problems are fixable.

“Design concepts and explorations are where Brendan shines! I would describe the problem, and he would draw up three or four ways to solve it. He is open to feedback and takes direction well. One of the things I like best about his designs are the annotations in the margins that explain his perspective or reasoning for certain elements.

Final designs are well organized, which helps our team quickly find what we need, especially when we need to refer back to them later.”

“We’ve really enjoyed your work and as you may have seen, we’ve implemented it (maybe not pixel by pixel) and it’s working well.”

“Brendan is a top performer for Torch, our NYC-based tech company. He consistently excels in all three key categories: design, performance, and communication. As just two examples, Brendan’s design work on our National Council of Nonprofits presentation deck was both timely and perfectly executed and his preparation of a recent client proposal helped Torch land our largest deal to date. I strongly recommend Brendan without reservation.”

I have worked with him in past roles, hiring him each time because he has proven not only to be a fantastic UX designer, deeply understanding the customer journey, but also incredibly easy to work with. He is communicative, responsive, and delivers iteratively. He is a dream to work with!”

“Working with Brendan on a new project of mine was great from start to finish and I look forward to collaborating more in the future.

Not only is his design work incredibly well thought out and professional, his project management skills are also great and he was able to meet all timelines and project goals.

I’d absolutely recommend him to anyone in need of some help on the UX/UI front.”

“Working with Brendan was a wonderful experience. I have never met someone that I have worked with so far that has always been available to chat and who has worked so hard to complete a task. As we worked together, I have found a true and honest friend in Brendan. He speaks up when needed and will help anyone he works with in knowing what’s important and what not. This is something that every start-up needs as sometimes people don’t truly have your best interests in mind.”

“Brendan works very professionally! The quality was great, and only one round of revisions was needed, and these were not really revisions/change but a couple of small additions, that Brendan worked into the design excellently. I’ve contracted with Brendan for two sprints/projects so far and will work again with him soon.”
Portrait of Daniel G.Daniel G.Software Developer
“Brendan’s mockups were exceptional. His work demonstrates his strong ability to put himself in the user’s shoes in order to create the best user experience possible. Brendan follows-up after delivering the final product to ensure you have what you need in order to start developing. He receives my highest recommendation.”
