What clients say

Maxim operates far beyond the interface. He quickly understands the business, challenges assumptions, and consistently turns complex product problems into solutions users can actually understand and adopt.

I've worked with many designers over the years. Maxim stands out because he focuses on outcomes, not deliverables. He cares about what works, what creates value, and what moves the product forward.

I had the pleasure of working with Maxim Shishkin on multiple projects at Solvve, where he consistently demonstrated a unique and thoughtful approach to UX design. What set Maxim apart was his ability to focus on solving the client’s business and user challenges rather than just creating visually appealing interfaces. His strong design perspective and problem-solving mindset made him a valuable contributor to our team and client success.

I worked with Maxim for more than 10 years, while building several Fintech companies over the past decade. He became much more than a designer. He consistently approached every challenge from a product perspective, asking the right questions, challenging assumptions, and helping us make better decisions. Maxim has a rare ability to translate complex ideas into products that feel simple and intuitive for users.
