Hey, I'm Lukas 👋🏼
I design interactions for AI-powered developer tools at Google in Munich. My path into UX started on the other side of the counter: years in Apple retail showed me how people really struggle with technology, and that still shapes how I work.
Along the way I completed a B.Sc. in User Experience Design and an M.Sc. in Human-Computer Interaction, worked at Microsoft Research and Fraunhofer, and lived in the UK, USA and Japan.

Focus areas
AI-first interaction design
Designing products where AI is part of the core experience, not an add-on: suggestions, agents and the trust around them.
Design with a computer science background
Studies in HCI and computer science (Munich, Tokyo, San José), so I speak the language of engineering and design for what is buildable.
Prototyping with AI agents
From idea to working prototype in days: I build with AI coding agents and models in my daily workflow.
Cross-functional collaboration
Working closely with PMs, engineers and researchers: shaping goals together and turning findings into design decisions.
