Claude Code for Designers
Rupa Chaturvedi
AI Design Leader | x-Uber/Google/Amazon
Master Claude Code. Build functional projects. Develop a reusable workflow.
The job posting asks for a designer who can research, prototype, code, and ship. One role, three people's worth of expectations. Design teams got smaller. The work did not. And now every product roadmap includes AI features that need to be designed by people who were never trained to design for probabilistic systems.
The pressure is coming from two directions. Inside your organization, you are expected to move faster with fewer resources while somehow incorporating AI tools into workflows no one has figured out yet. Outside, the profession itself is shifting. AI generates interfaces, writes copy, produces prototypes in minutes. The execution work that built your career is compressing. The question is no longer whether designers need to adapt—it is whether you are building the skills that will matter in two years.
Claude Code for Designers answers both pressures at once. You move faster because you can build functional prototypes yourself. You stay relevant because directing AI to build is the new execution skill. You leave with a deployed project and a workflow system you can use on anything that comes next.
What you’ll learn
