Skuid, the leading cloud user experience (UX) platform for building bespoke business apps without writing code, announced today that it has launched an Experience Design Group to assist Skuid customers and partners with best practices in UX.
The team will be led by Jeff Cole, Director of Experience Design Group, who recently joined Skuid from OpenTable where he was Director of Product Management.
Jeff has worked in marketing, brand development, and strategic B2B and B2C consulting for some of the world's greatest brands from Coca-Cola, McDonalds, Home Depot, HCA, Columbia Healthcare and Tarkett to regional and national bank and lending institutions.
Cole’s areas of expertise include user research, visual design, experience design, story mapping, and design thinking, among others. Cole is joined by other experienced UX professionals, several of which also came from OpenTable.
