  • Leverage Generative AI tools to enhance design workflows, improve design iteration speed, and automate certain development tasks.
  • Apply AI-driven insights to inform UI/UX decisions and improve product design based on user data.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration:
  • Collaborate with designers to translate wireframes, prototypes, and mockups into functional user interfaces.
  • Communicate with quality assurance teams to ensure that the UI is thoroughly tested and bug-free.
• Version Control & Deployment:
