My Approach
UX designer can be viewed as a diplomat, always searching for a common ground among all business requirements, stakeholders, engineers, and architects, but always looking at a design from the user's standpoint.
I Believe
UX design for MVP is not done until all parties sign-off the designs, and users approve it. This can be achieved only by doing UX research and adjusting designs based on the UX feedback.
