# Freelance UI/UX designer in Islamabad, Pakistan

I'm Raza Ul Mustafa, a freelance UI/UX and product designer based in Islamabad, Pakistan, with 10+ years of experience. I design SaaS dashboards, FinTech apps, mobile apps and design systems for clients worldwide, including American Express and stc. I work remotely, and with my studio's developers I can also build what I design.

Last updated 26 October 2026

**10+** years in UI/UX and product design **200+** projects shipped **Top Rated** on Upwork, earned through repeat clients **UTC+5** Pakistan time, overlapping the full Gulf working day Why work with me

## Why hire a senior designer in Pakistan?

Enterprise-level product design, in hours that suit your team, with development available in the same place.

01

### Enterprise experience from Islamabad

From 2018 to 2024 I worked from Islamabad, embedded with American Express on the @Work platform and its mobile app. From 2024 to 2025 I designed enterprise platforms for stc, including Experts Hub, working remotely with the team in Saudi Arabia.

02

### Hours that fit the Gulf and Europe

Islamabad is one hour ahead of the UAE and two hours ahead of Saudi Arabia, so the whole working day overlaps. UK and European mornings overlap my afternoon.

03

### Design and build in one place

I work with a small team of front-end and back-end developers, so a project can go from Figma to a launched product without a hand-off between agencies.

What I do

## What can I design for you?

Six services, each with real work, a live demo and a clear way to start. Not sure which fits? Start with a UX audit.

[01

### SaaS dashboards

Dashboards, admin panels and multi-role web apps where roles, permissions and data stay clear enough that people act with confidence.6 role-based portals on American Express @Work

## How does working remotely work?

The same process for a team in Islamabad or in Riyadh. You always know what's next and what it costs.

Week 0

### Discovery call

We talk through your product, users and goals. You get a clear scope, timeline and price.

Week 1

### Map the flows

Journeys and structure first, so we agree on how it works before how it looks.

Weeks 2 to 5

### Design and test

High-fidelity screens and a clickable prototype, refined with your feedback and real users.

Launch

### Handoff and support

Specs and components for your developers, or build and launch with my studio.

Questions

## What do clients ask?

Do you work with companies in Pakistan?

Yes. I work with teams in Pakistan and abroad. Everything runs remotely, so it works the same for a startup in Islamabad, Lahore or Karachi as for a team in Riyadh or London.

Which time zone do you work in?

Pakistan Standard Time (UTC+5). That overlaps the full working day in Saudi Arabia and the UAE, and the morning in the UK and Europe.

Can I hire you through Upwork?

Yes. I'm Top Rated on Upwork. You can also work with me directly by sending a brief through this site.

Do you only design, or also build?

Both. I design the product and my studio's developers can build it, so you have one team from first screen to launch.

How do we start?

Send a short brief with the form. I reply within one working day with first thoughts and clear next steps.

## Let's make it clear.

Tell me what you're building. I reply within one working day with first thoughts and next steps.
