Design engineering on the Clearleft podcast

If you���re subscribed to the Clearleft podcast, then the latest episode is winging its way through the ether to your podcast software. The topic is one close to my heart: design engineering.

I wrote about this role back in February. I think my fervour comes across in that post and you can probably hear it in the podcast episode too.

As ever, I end up asking the question, ���So what exactly is insert topic of the podcast episode here?���

I���ve got some smart folks answering that question. There���s an excerpt from Tobias Ahlin���s talk at this year���s UX Fest. And when I interviewed Adekunle Oduye for a previous episode on prototyping, we also discussed design engineering so I pulled out the relevant bits. But the bulk of the episode features the voice of Trys Mudford.

As you can gather from the many posts on Trys���s blog, he has a lot to say on the topic of design engineering. Luckily for me, he says it all with a clear, articulate delivery���the perfect podcast guest!

This episode finishes with a call to action (oh, the synergy!). If, after listening to 23 minutes of discussion on design engineering, you find yourself thinking ���Hey, I think I might be a design engineer!���, then you should definitely head along to this job opening at Clearleft:

We���re currently looking for a design-friendly front-end developer with demonstrable skills in pattern-based prototyping and production.
