I don’t think anything has ever related to me more! I’m currently working as a UX Developer at a learning platform startup, and all of the aspects you talk about I get involved in. It’s a great role if you have the skills to do it, being a UXE (or UX Dev in my case).

I came from a background of loving both Computing and Product Design at school, to Software Engineering at uni and now I am there at every stage of the product lifecycle at my current company, from research, to design, to development and presentation!

Thanks for sharing!
