Diya Sabharwal, product designer

Technology is magic, studying computer science showed me that. I make this magic come to life for humans through product design. Privileged to have worked at ambitious technological organizations big and small such as Google, Block Party, Libro.fm. Taught a class on design methods at Stanford University. Would love to collaborate on building a better future, harnessing the positive power of technology, with you.

UX Design & Research · 2025 to Present

I’ve worked across two teams at Google. As a contract UX designer on Fiber, I work on growth, acquisition, and 0 to 1 agentic purchase flows for the Google Fiber website. Earlier, as a UX research intern on Chrome, I helped design a trustworthy browsing experience at billion-user scale, alongside Chrome’s Gemini surfaces. These case studies are under NDA, available on request.

Block Party

Design Intern · Shipped 2024

Block Party is a browser extension that deep-cleans your social media. It was desktop-only, so people who found it through mobile ads could read about it but never try it, and the funnel leaked right between interest and install. I designed a mobile demo that lets you feel the product before installing anything, built on one insight: people don’t trust what they can’t try. It shipped across their LinkedIn and X funnels and is still in use.

MindCompass XR

Design & Product Lead · 2023

I owned MindCompass end to end: research, product direction, and the spatial XR interface, from a blank canvas to a working build. MindCompass won Stanford's annual UX Design Expo in 2023 among 40 student submissions, awarded by the Computer Science Department. It earned us a place in the Stanford XR incubator, where we kept building and received an acquisition offer before pausing the project to focus on our studies.

Coupa Cafe

Product Designer · Shipped 2025

Coupa Cafe is a beloved Bay Area coffee chain whose app serves 10,000 monthly customers. I designed their ordering and checkout flow, as well as their loading states across app surfaces. The redesign led to faster checkout times and a higher checkout completion rate for Coupa Cafe customers.

Bases

VP of Marketing · Brand Identity · 2023

I designed a sticker-led rebrand for BASES. One “Ideas that Byte” sticker became the whole campaign, getting more technical people to join our club, and applications grew 10% year over year.
