Who are you and what’s your role at ClickPesa?

My name is Neema Adam but I like to go with my nickname Neicore. I work as a UI/UX designer at ClickPesa helping design the three products that we have which are ClickPesa merchant dashboard, ClickPesa sender portal, and GetPaid Africa.

When did you join the team?

I joined the team on January 6, 2022.

Where are you working from?

I am currently based in Arusha.

What does a regular day at ClickPesa look like for you?

It looks like morning meetings(10am) and sometimes very early morning meetings(8am), some slack messages mostly with the product manager, and lots of Figma frames.

Who do you primarily work with on the team?

Mostly the product manager Rick, the frontend team Peter and Ben, and tech lead Omar.

Why do you enjoy working at ClickPesa?

It's a great work environment. Team members are approachable and I am learning a lot from the team and from the work that I do.

What is your favorite thing you worked on at ClickPesa?

The new design improvements in the GetPaid UI. It’s pretty dope, can’t wait for it to be pushed to prod!

What are you working on now?

We are currently working on the administrators dashboard so the admins can manage the ClickPesa products easily and I have been working on designing the UIs of those dashboards. Next week the development team will start working on the designs that are ready.

What tools do you use?

Short answer, I use Figma. Long answer, read my article here.

What do you like to listen to while you work?

My amapiano playlist always gets me in focus mode but I sometimes switch it up to some HipHop, Pop, or Soul. Here is my spotify profile.

Favorite working snack?

Banana and potato crisps are my favorite.

What do you do when not working on ClickPesa?

It has been an aspiration of mine to become a web developer so on weekends I do some coding, whether it is working on a side project or visiting the tutorial hell.
