- The team faces fascinating challenges: How do you design conversations between developers and AI agents? What does trust look like in AI-assisted code review? How do you make complex AI capabilities discoverable without overwhelming users? Your team is pioneering design patterns that the entire industry watches and learns from
- The broader UX team values collaboration, iteration, and user empathy. We believe great design comes from understanding our users deeply and working closely with our engineering and product partners
