  • Promote a culture of continuous improvement, maintaining accurate documentation and driving developer empowerment through AI integration

  • Conduct user research, gather feedback, and analyze workflows to validate assumptions and inform AI-related product decisions.

  • Validate UX mocks, other prototypes and early-stage simulations with development teams

  • Hands-on experience with modern AI or developer tooling including exposure to tools such as GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT, CI/CD bots, and how they are used in software teams
