Developers are the Most Underrated Designers
Too Long; Didn't Read
One of my biggest gripes with the modern product lifecycle is the forced compartmentalization of specializations. If I am being hired for design, then that should not mean that I am a design God who can magically turn every business objective into a successful feature on my own. My domain expertise may center around design, but I also have about 8 years of experience doing product marketing and writing.. which you wouldn’t glean from my title. I also ‘code’, though I wouldn’t remotely call myself a developer. I’ve also done sales, business development, and support.
