Product design for regulated, data-heavy software.

I’m Nina van Riet, a senior product designer. Most recently the only designer at Scaler, an ESG data platform, where I covered five engineering teams. Open to senior and lead roles.

Replacing email-and-Excel data collection with in-platform requests

Clients used to chase ESG data from hundreds of suppliers over email. I redesigned it so they send a request from the platform and can see exactly what has come back.

Every data gap in a 200-asset portfolio on one screen

Finding gaps in a 200-asset portfolio meant opening every asset, one by one. I brought them together on one screen, so teams can filter to what matters and fix it in bulk.

A readiness score for each of 13+ regulatory frameworks

Reporting is the most important thing clients do in Scaler, and it was hidden in a menu. I gave it its own home, with a readiness score that tells teams what to fix before they generate anything.

An AI assistant that adapts to your role and your data

This was my own redesign of Scaler's AI assistant. I took it as far as nine coded prototypes, and they fed into the Lumi redesign the team started before I left.

The redesign I argued against shipping

I designed a new consent-form builder for clinical trials, then tested it and found that four small fixes would help customers more than a rebuild.

Tooling
Net weight
One designer.
I was the only designer on a three-module ESG platform, working with two product managers and ten to fifteen engineers.
Serves
Five teams.
All five teams built from one coded design system, and a Claude assistant answered their design questions when I wasn't around.
Ingredients
Research, systems, front-end.
I built everything with Claude Code, and an engineer reviewed every change before it shipped. How that works →

Nina van RietAbout

Based in Amsterdam Oost. In the Algarve when I can be.

I studied TV and broadcast journalism and found my way into product design through a UX immersive. I ended up in enterprise software on purpose, because I like work where the data has to be right and the people using it don't have time to waste.

Outside work I love interior design and art, and I own a small rental in Cabanas de Tavira. I also collect sardine tins and build tools for my own life.
