1:1 mentorship for designers in the AI era
Individual sessions with me to evolve your process, your portfolio, and the way you work with AI agents. Method, not shortcuts.
Who it is for
For designers already working in product, or moving into it, who feel the job changed faster than their process did.
You use AI every day, but it decides too much and you specify too little.
Your portfolio shows screens, but not judgment, process, and outcomes.
You want to take part in more stages of the product cycle without becoming a traditional developer.
You want clarity on your next career step, with direct feedback and no ready-made formula.
What we work on
Specification and collaboration with AI agents in the design process.
Portfolio and case narrative: proving judgment, not just delivery.
Product design process: from understanding the problem to validating the solution.
Career positioning in the AI era.
How it works
Sessions are one to one and shaped around your goal. There is no fixed package: the format follows the problem you bring.
You can reach out through the contact form or book a session on ADPList, where I am a mentor.
What is not included
It is not a course or a structured program. The AI Product Engineering training is being born at Xikota.ai.
It is not project execution. Studio work lives at Xikota Design.
It is not a job promise or a guaranteed outcome.
Why with me
More than 10 designers mentored in 1:1 sessions.
Mentor on ADPList.
Group mentoring session with Grupo Soma on Claude Code and Figma MCP.
Hands-on practice in global-scale product and published research on specification and AI (AIMEDIA 2026).
