Sam Zamor builds complete products: strategy, design, production code, and the autonomous systems that keep shipping while he sleeps. 25 years independent. Two ventures funded and acquired. A platform serving over one million users.
client work · evidence stack
Shipped product, not case study theatre. Every card opens to the full record: role, stack, decisions, what happened after launch.
flagship engagement
Career readiness and talent discovery for over one million students, job seekers, and scholarship providers across the United States. Ongoing design and engineering across the platform: design systems built in Figma and Token Studio, responsive product UI, React and React Native shipped to production.
Custom software consulting. Product design embedded across client builds: software that fits the business, not the other way around.
Knowledge enablement platform for modern teams.
Next-generation aviation operations and crew management. Interface systems for maintenance and operations workflows, where a confusing screen grounds aircraft.
Brand and product engagements across two decades of independent practice. Selected archive on request.

the operator
I have run an independent practice for 25 years. In that time I have been the strategist, the designer, the frontend engineer, and lately the person wiring up the agents that work the night shift. You get one accountable operator instead of a handoff chain. The work above is what that looks like.
How it works: describe the problem in two paragraphs. A drafted brief reaches your inbox before our first call. From there, two shapes: a fixed-scope build with a dated checkpoint plan, or a monthly operating retainer where the system keeps improving after launch.
Positioning, user flows, IA, and scope that survives production.
Figma systems, responsive product UI, accessibility, and visual craft built with implementation in mind.
React, React Native, Next.js, AI workflows, telemetry, and agents that keep the work moving.
night system · on record
At 03:00 an agent observes yesterday's build, decides a direction, mutates the system, and archives the result. Page order, palette, grid, motion language: all on the table. Every version is scored against the same 28 first-screen checks offered at the Teardown Desk. Below threshold, last night stays live and the failure goes in the morgue anyway. 7 full versions on record.

Paste a homepage. The desk captures the first screen, audits it against 28 checks, rewrites the message, and composes a new hero. The same rubric this site grades itself with every night.
Preview runs on canned captures until the public desk opens.
Offer, proof, and next action land before the visitor has to decode the page.
