Today’s guest is Nuno Coelho Santos – a Portuguese Product Designer who has worked at some of tech’s top companies from DeepMind to Meta’s WhatsApp, and Google Health.

He was at DeepMind working on their Streams app for clinicians when Covid struck and his team were pulled into helping the UK Ministry’s of Health Departments Covid response.

In this wide ranging conversation, we talk about Nuno’s early pull between his two great loves – engineering and design, how design ultimately won and led to his work award winning work at DeepMind and Google as well as the career break he took after being inspired by designer Stefan Sagmeister who believed in taking a complete sabbatical every seven years.

We also discuss the differences in the companies he worked at, and what the impact of AI might be on software and design in the future.

I really enjoyed talking to Nuno and I think you will learn a lot – this is his first ever podcast interview.

So please enjoy my conversation with Nuno Coelho Santos.
