Aditya Sarkar

Interaction Designer specializing in complex systems architecture, behavioral B2B2C product strategy, and AI multi-agent workflows. Proven ability to bridge the gap between engineering constraints, human psychology, and core business metrics (retention, API compute costs). Currently seeking a Summer 2026 Product Design Internship to tackle hard execution challenges.

Axis Bank | Bancassurance Service Design & Strategy

• Audited a massive B2B2C enterprise ecosystem to diagnose a "Broken Activation Metric" causing catastrophic long-term customer churn.
• Engineered a behavioral-driven, modular onboarding system utilizing a "Laddering" strategy to replace generic, high-friction policies.
• Leveraged cognitive psychological frameworks (IKEA Effect, Goal Gradient) to increase user investment and drive long-term policy retention for Max Life.

EDGAR Intercepts | Multi-Agent AI System Architecture

• Architected a centralized Multi-Agent System (MAS) leveraging a strict Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) framework to parse 200-page SEC 10-K filings.
• Designed a Human-in-the-Loop (HITL) interface tailored for institutional finance, prioritizing zero-trust accuracy and eliminating AI hallucination liability.
• Optimized API compute efficiency by designing a "Gatekeeper Protocol", a reflex agent that instantly validates requests before triggering heavier LLM logic.

Presence Illusion | Behavioral IoT Security System

• Developed a physical, low-cost IoT edge-computing prototype utilizing ESP32 microcontrollers, ultrasonic sensors, and localized audio triggers.
• Shifted home security paradigms from reactive surveillance to proactive psychological deterrence based on behavioral vacancy indicators.
• Showcased working prototype at Ahmedabad Design Week; earned validation from WDO board members for scalability into macro-urban property protection.

• Team Lead, Global Game Jam: Directed a 6-person team to rapid-prototype and brand a strategic game ("Popportunity") in 48 hours under extreme time constraints.
• Display Lead, Ahmedabad Design Week: Orchestrated the Interaction Department's physical exhibition at Karnavati University, managing complex installations and cross-team logistics.

Core Competencies: Systems Architecture, B2B2C Product Strategy, Service Design, UX/UI Design, User Research, Behavioral Psychology, Multi-Agent Systems (MAS).
