Work directly with engineers, product and operations to understand problems from the people who have them
Share what you learn so the team gets better at building with AI

More interest in whether something worked than in how much code you wrote
Clear communication with both technical and non-technical teammates
Something you've built and are proud of, whether at work, in school or on your own
