Oliver Maton, Head of Product Design

I'm Oliver Maton

Head of Product Design @ FixMyCar

I'm a designer, systems thinker, tokens architect and problem solver. I help teams craft better products through design.

I’m a multidisciplinary product design leader with nearly 15 years experience designing for the web and beyond. Obsessed with systems, tokens, accessibility and democratising the design process. Comfortable whether I'm tweaking pixels in Figma, pushing code to GitHub or advocating for users in leadership meetings.

 

Currently leading product design for FixMyCar, a digital marketplace that helps drivers find and book mechanics across the UK.

 

Outside of work you'll find me watching films, reading a book or on my bike. For me the action is the juice.

Systems first

Laying the foundations for solid design work from the ground up. I create carefully considered design systems with adaptability and scalability at the forefront of their creation.

Inclusive design

I believe design is for everyone. Whether it's meeting accessibility standards or bringing users and stakeholders into the process, I ensure no one is left behind.

Connecting design and engineering

I'm comfortable collaborating with engineers or working directly in code. Whether that's tweaking CSS in production or bringing prototypes to life with code.

Pragmatic process

I know when to ship. By taking a pragmatic approach to design and prioritizing real user feedback, I iterate and learn in production, ensuring products evolve based on real-world usage.
