P4 DAM Enterprise web app 2026

Front-end capacity on P4 DAM fell from six developers to two. I shipped production front end alongside them and built Claude skills that write specs and handovers, which cut planning meetings from an hour to 30 minutes. One skill won Best Designed at the company’s 2026 AI hackathon.

Ben has a great eye for UX and isn’t afraid to scrap an existing UI if there’s a better way to do it. He uses AI to build out prototypes fast, which means we can get end-to-end features published much quicker than usual. He’s also just a laid-back, approachable guy - design reviews with him were always easy and collaborative. I’d definitely work with him again.
