On Design Engineering: I think I might be a design engineer... An Article by Trys Mudford www.trysmudford.com Design engineering is the name for the discipline that finesses the overlap between design and engineering to speed delivery and idea validation. From prototyping to production-ready code, this function fast-tracks design decisions, mitigates risk, and establishes UI code quality.
