A Designer and a Developer Walk into a Bar… Rethinking Designer-Developer Collaboration
June 25, 2025
Hebrew | Intermediate

Designers dream big. Developers think in edge cases. Somewhere in between, great products are built - but not without friction.

In this talk, we’ll share a dialogue between a full-stack developer and a UX/UI designer about where things break down, why miscommunication happens, and how to close the gap. You’ll leave with practical tools, shared workflows, and simple mindset shifts to help your team speak the same language, move faster, and build products users truly love.

Hi, I’m Talia, a UX/UI Designer at the LevelUP program, part of SDS Group in Israel, where I’m designing an app to help teams improve their software delivery performance. With a diverse background in product design, art direction, and branding, I’ve had the opportunity to work at both startups and tech companies, giving me a strong understanding of user experience from both design and business perspectives. I earned my B.A. in Visual Communication from Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design, and expanded my expertise through a User Experience study program at the Technion. I also teach interface design and typography at the university and mentor women in tech. In my free time, you’ll often find me stand-up paddle surfing on Tel Aviv’s beaches.
