Amwork
All-in-One Platform
Introduction
Amwork is a flexible platform that enables businesses to build custom workspaces using ready-made modules like project management, CRM, HR, hiring tools, and more. Designed for small and medium-sized teams, it helps companies automate internal processes without writing a single line of code.I joined the team at a time when the platform was actively expanding, and most of the modules were yet to be designed. Throughout the year, I was responsible for shaping nearly the entire product interface.
The Challenge
I worked as the sole UX/UI designer on AmWork for one year. My responsibilities included:
Designing nearly all modules of the platform
Creating the marketing website
Visuals for social media
Presentation materials for investors
The work was based on daily calls and collaboration with the founder (who also acted as product manager), as well as regular communication with developers and the QA specialist.
Selected Modules
AmWork is a multi-module platform packed with features for managing business operations across teams and departments. Below are just a few examples from the broad set of tools I worked on:
Project & Task Management
Kanban board with task statuses, assignees, deadlines, and nested tasks. The focus was on creating a clean layout with drag-and-drop functionality and fast transitions from overview to action.
Hiring & Recruitment
A multi-stage candidate funnel with profiles, statuses, notes, and filters. One key focus was simplifying navigation between roles and candidate cards.
Appointment Scheduling
Calendar module integrated with both CRM and project tools. Designed to eliminate confusion about when and where meetings were booked.
Messenger
A simple real-time messaging module that allowed team members to communicate across tasks and projects. Integrated with task mentions and notifications.
Product Scope
10+ Functional Modules
Project management, CRM, recruiting, calendar, inventory, suppliers, and more.
Role-Based Views
Different modules tailored for HR, managers, admins, and operators.
Connected Workflows
Modules are deeply integrated — e.g., appointments tied to deals, tasks linked to hires.
Designed to Evolve
Flexible enough to support ongoing changes, client-specific customizations, and new business logic.
Challenges & UX Focus
Structuring the product based on existing early screens provided by a previous designer, used as a starting point
Constant adaptation to new business processes and modules
Creating a unified logic and user experience across very different types of tools
Maintaining a lightweight, clean interface in a system packed with features
Process
Each new module began with a call: the founder explained the goal and shared references
I created UX/UI solutions based on this input and iterated daily via syncs
Final designs were passed to development after internal reviews
In parallel, I supported external needs such as the website, presentations, and social content
Feedback & Results
At the time of my work, the platform had no large-scale client base yet. However, several early users provided feedback that led to UI adjustments and, in some cases, custom-built functionality tailored to their needs.

Reflections
Amwork is the most complex product I've worked on so far. It combines dozens of business processes into one unified platform. Each module had its own logic and edge cases, and yet the entire system had to feel cohesive. This project taught me how to design at scale, communicate closely with stakeholders, and bring clarity to complex tools.
