This will come really handy, thank you. I'm trying to build a better infrastructure at work; do you have anything written up about how you work at Airbnb? Your "bring design & engineering closer together" mission sounds like what I'm trying to accomplish, would like to read/chat more about it.
This is great, thanks Jon. I've been struggling to find good workflows for integrating design and engineering (especially when there is a disparity in maturity of the processes for each party).
I think there is definitely a gap in the "literature" for this topic and will be eager to follow any other progress you can share.
I asked something similar when AirBnb announced Lottie, and the team (Jon Gold included) replied with great insights.
