About me
My name is Daniela Muntyan. I recently moved to London and currently work as Design Director at GR8 Tech.
I grew up in Ukraine. That’s when I studied arts and design and got into my first role as a product designer at 18 years old. For the last 8 years, I’ve been focusing on building iOS apps and multi-platform design systems.
At GR8.tech, I lead the Design Systems team. I’m responsible for the initiation, design, management and planning of implementing and adopting the Modulor design system. Modulor is used internally by more than 3000 people and three partner teams. As a Design Director also, I’m responsible for hiring and mentoring designers for all vertical teams across the company and overall design standards.
Previously I worked at Genesis, where I designed Scan Guru (the most downloaded iOS scanner app) and a powerful translator app — Translator Guru.
As a designer, I’m interested in design tools. So, I’ve created Token Master, a Figma Plugin for managing design tokens and dark mode. Thousands of designers worldwide currently use token Master.
My passion is creating helpful and valuable products that make people more productive and happier. So far, I have designed products that more than 30,000,000 real people use worldwide.
