Software Engineer

WORKING TOGETHER

Building better software through teamwork

Collaborative. That's the word Software Engineer Fatima Fatajo chose to sum up the company culture. “John Deere understands that innovation happens when people with diverse experiences and backgrounds work together,” she said. She sees this in action on her team, where they tap into pair programming to cross-train team members and share technical expertise. She also works cross-functionally with other international software teams to develop best practices. Another perk: That collaborative attitude on her team also means that Fatajo has a strong network to lean on when she needs to unplug.

By collaborating with different teams around the world, we can ensure we are creating the highest quality of software for our products.

Euijung Yang

UX Researcher

Human-centered problem-solving

Keeping users in mind, all the time

UX design isn’t just aesthetics. It involves complex challenges, and Euijung Yang is captivated by the problems she gets to solve in her work. She was the first UX professional at John Deere Financial and has helped establish a human-centered approach to the customer experience. “We find issues, pain points and user frustrations from observations, interviews and surveys. By using best practices from human factors and cognitive ergonomics, UX designers create the most intuitive and usable products for our users,” she said.

If we are not considering UX elements in the product cycle, we are just ‘building a thing.’ We need to consider UX research and design to ‘build a thing right.’
