About

Hi, I’m Elgar.

For sixteen years I’ve designed and built products, from digital tools to physical craft. I started Sirajov for founders who need one accountable partner instead of a chain of handoffs. I scope, design, build, test, and launch every project myself, and I care that what I hand over still works, and still makes sense, years from now.

Remote, working with clients worldwide.

The path so far

  1. 2022 to 2023

    UI and UX Designer, property tech company (Dallas, Texas)

    Noise monitoring for short-term rentals, helping hosts prevent parties and complaints without cameras. I designed across the web and mobile apps: reusable components for the UI system, search and navigation for every screen size, and the prompt flows hosts rely on, tested across desktop, tablet, and phone.

  2. 2022

    Graphic and Web Designer, infrastructure software company (San Francisco)

    Cloud cost management that helps companies see and cut what they spend on cloud services. I shaped brand-aligned web and marketing design and logo work, and joined client and sales calls to bring the design perspective.

  3. 2022

    Web Designer, e-commerce marketing company (Los Angeles)

    Email list growth for e-commerce brands, identifying returning visitors so stores can reach shoppers who never signed up. I took web experiences from wireframes to high-fidelity Figma designs for developers, built to work across Shopify, WooCommerce, and other platforms.

  4. 2018 to present

    Bespoke designer, Clearview Industrial Décor and my own barn door line

    Custom furniture and modern sliding barn doors for homes and commercial spaces: sketches, 3D models in SketchUp, and material and stress analysis, delivered on schedule and budget.

  5. 2015 to 2018

    Founder, Safari Juice Inc.

    Built a Canadian consumer products company from brand to shelf.

  6. 2014 to 2016

    Co-founder, Ukrainians

    Social platform on web, iOS and Android. Almost half a million users, built in under 3 months for under $30k.

  7. 2012 to 2014

    Co-founder, Muza World

    Learning platform, product and design lead.

Education

  • MBA, Project Management

    Australian Institute of Business

    2019 to 2021

  • BA, Health Management

    York University

    2008 to 2013

Made by hand

The same care, in wood and steel.

Alongside digital products, I design and build custom furniture and modern sliding barn doors. Measuring twice, finishing every edge, building things that last. It’s the same discipline I bring to software.

Currently

  • Founder, Sirajov Works · Product studio for founders and growing businesses
  • CTO, SD Events · Technology and digital strategy for an event design studio in Istanbul and Toronto

How I think

Four habits behind every project.

Durable over trendy

I make choices that will still make sense in five years, not just this season.

Ownership by default

Your code, designs, and accounts are yours, set up so anyone can pick them up.

Working previews over slide decks

You see and use the real thing early, so feedback lands while it is still cheap.

How I use AI

AI helps me research, build, and review faster. I own the direction and the quality.
