Lessons Learned
Learning to Speak “Engineering” as a Designer
Learned why collaboration with engineering is critical to turn concepts into feasible and reliable designs.
Practiced handling engineering constraints as a designer by asking constraint-driven questions early.
Translated UX goals into measurable requirements (for example, stiffness, weight, and safety limits).
