Vraj Shah

A designer living in Berlin. Born in Vadodara, India.

For the past few years, I've been designing end-to-end at YC and Sequoia-backed startups — across fintech, AI, and health. Shipping products used by real people, where clarity isn't a nice-to-have.

I'm drawn to 0→1 problems. The kind where there's no template, no precedent — just a blank canvas and a hard constraint.

I grew up playing drums. Took it seriously enough to earn a master's degree. Music taught me that the best work — in any medium — has rhythm, restraint, and nothing wasted. That's still how I design.
