My client is creating a SAAS solution to create web platforms. I was initially brought on to fill in the gaps between the Backend Developer and the User Interface Designer as a Frontend Developer. Along the way, my input as a UX designer has proven indispensable in helping the team mitigate risks by forming new perspectives on the design, in terms of communication and interaction choices as well as the overall creative process. As more features need designing, I've pivoted to a more UI design focussed role in recent years.
