Alexander Varney is a software designer.

I'm a software designer and product builder creating delightful user experiences. I love every part of the design process, from doing research and defining the problem all the way to writing reusable CSS and pushing code.

I’m guided by intuition and informed by research and I strongly believe that aesthetics and attention to detail drive exceptional products.

Senior Product Designer at Undo

2022 — 2024

Undo is a 100% digital insurance company. As the design lead for the car insurance product, I’ve applied psychology-based design principles to help new customers understand and choose the right coverage, resulting in a 9% increase in the average premium paid by new customers. I also redesigned parts of the referral program to be more cost-effective, saving +3.5M DKK/yearly.
