Design @ Google
Making work more efficient, fun and informative
In Munich, I took part in Core UX team, working on delivering internal products to make life at Google even more efficient, fun and informative. My projects there ranged from designing conversational UI's to developing new information sharing tools inside Google. I took the role of design lead and worked with my team of engineers and a dedicated product manager.

“I couldn’t have been happier with the results and I would attribute a large fraction of the eventual success of the product to the user-centric approach and the creative problem solving that Ezgi brought into the project. Conversational UI is hard and posed an unique challenge which Ezgi navigated very well while multi-tasking between different work streams and sub-projects. Ezgi’s work ethic on the project was commendable and we all enjoyed working with her.”
“Ezgi was responsible for the UX of a product from the area of conversational assistive technology. She is a strong advocate for the user and is knowledgeable in a broad number of areas related to UX. She always developed excellent ideas and gave valuable inspirations. Ezgi was very good at planning and conducting user research as well as developing actionable recommendations to improve the user experience. She always delivered her work to the highest quality. I am thankful for her great contributions and recommend her without any reservation.”
