Nathan Rice
Meridian
Meridian is a GPU cloud startup that sells AI teams compute from off-grid data centers.
As the sole designer, I built and tested the design system: components with defined states, spacing and color as tokens and written guardrails. Then I designed the deployment console on top of it, including dense operational data, live states, real cost math.
The engineering team is rebuilding the product front end against that system as the next phase of the product takes shape. Brand iterations came first and fed the system rather than sitting beside it. This is proprietary work and the name has been changed.
