I design products that help startups get off the ground, scale, and secure funding.
I'm Gershom Charig, a Founding Designer with 15+ years of experience helping startups turn ideas into successful products. I’ve been the first designer at five startups, working directly with founders to define product vision, build MVPs, and reach product-market fit.
Currently, I’m Head of Design and a founding member at Pactio, building innovative solutions for private equity. Previously, I was part of Palantir’s business development team, where I helped launch 29 new commercial initiatives in under a year.
I also advise founders on integrating human-centred design into their businesses, helping them navigate the early-stage chaos with clarity and speed. If you’re a startup founder looking to build or refine your product, I’d love to connect.
