Matt Greisamer — UX Design & Research Leader
Research-led design leadership for complex B2B products.
I build and lead teams whose research changes what gets built, not only how it looks. 10+ years in UX, 7+ managing design and research teams.
Team standard
“Understand the user better than anyone, the product nearly as well as the PMs, and the technology nearly as well as the developers.”
Case studies
problem → research → decision → outcome
Research program · Finvi Sample
Client Advisory Boards that steer the roadmap
Executives from our most valued clients, across multiple business lines, meeting with UX to shape requirements and priority.
Outcome: 3 of the top 5 roadmap items in the following year came directly from board sessions
Design system · Finvi Sample
A Figma system built on variables
Tokens and components that ease development and keep a multi-product suite consistent.
Outcome: UI build time on new screens down roughly 40%, with one source of truth for design and code
Leadership · Finvi Sample
Standing up a UX department from zero
Hiring, rituals, and a research practice whose remit keeps growing because it keeps proving its value.
Outcome: Grew from 1 to a team of 6 designers and researchers, now embedded in every product line
Enterprise · The CoStar Group Sample
One CRM for every CoStar employee
Interviews, journey maps and a new design system behind an internal tool that unified how the company works.
Outcome: Replaced several legacy tools, and common sales tasks took far fewer clicks
