A complex platform presented a steep learning curve. Newcomers struggled to grasp SharePoint’s capabilities and find their way during the initial experience.
An onboarding flow rebuilt around first-time users: modernized UI, contextual guidance, and full alignment with Microsoft’s design standards and accessibility requirements.
I spearheaded the onboarding redesign, updated UI patterns for design system compliance, partnered with product and engineering on scalable implementation, and validated through user testing.
