It's difficult to get bored
Brian, American, Usability Engineer

"It's difficult to get bored at Microsoft Development Center Copenhagen, mainly because there's always an opportunity to try new things. I've been here since 1998, and I tend to be involved in projects lasting 3-4 months. What's common about the projects is that none of them are alike. This is both exciting and challenging as I need to work with different methods and people for each project. "

"I have a very user-centric job as usability engineer on the Microsoft Dynamics UX team. One of the things that I do basically is to observe real users at real companies doing real work in order to gain an understanding of their real challenges – and then of course presenting my findings to the feature teams that I'm working with. This has a real impact on the software development process. One of my best experiences was driving a user-centric design process for a new sales order form for Microsoft Dynamics NAV 4.0. This was a good experience because we let the data that we gathered from customer visits in three countries drive the requirement and design decisions that led to the new sales order form. "
