Music and video bring joy to the journey, turning every drive into a concert or movie night at a camp site: they elevate the vehicle from a mode of transport to a stage for personal moments and shared memories. For Di Bao, veteran UI/UX designer at Rivian, shaping the in-vehicle user interface is more than just a project; it’s been a chance to rethink the driving experience. “Every day feels like solving a puzzle,” she explains. “There are so many pieces—hardware, software, streaming apps. The challenge of fitting them together is what makes it fun.” Di’s focus is on making the interface intuitive, whether people are streaming Spotify, casting YouTube videos, listening to a favorite audiobook on Audible, or making hands-free calls. She loves watching the First Time User Experience (FTUE), a feature she helped build, come to life. Sometimes, she scrolls through YouTube videos of new Rivian owners lighting up as they interact with their new vehicle for the first time. “I see their excitement, and it makes all the hard work worth it,” Di says. “Our FTUE doesn’t just introduce them to the car; it welcomes them. It’s like saying, ‘This is yours. Let’s explore it together.’” At Rivian, the pace of work is fast and exciting. “In traditional car companies, you design something, and it might take five years to hit the market. Here, I can work on a feature today, and by next quarter I’ll see reviewers talking about it. That feedback loop is so motivating.” That same speed is tempered by the complexity of the software and design, which, by nature, demands constant collaboration across teams. Di often finds herself in brainstorming sessions where ideas fly freely between designers, engineers, and product managers. “Sometimes a designer will suggest something impractical,” she explains, “but it inspires someone else to think, ‘What if we tried it this way?’ It’s not just about getting the job done; it’s about pushing each other to think beyond the obvious.” This shared mindset is something Di is genuinely grateful for. “Everyone here believes nothing is impossible. We’re not just looking at what other vehicles are doing; we’re asking, ‘What’s the most amazing thing we can create?’” For Di, Rivian is more than a job. It’s a place where creativity, technology, and passion converge, where every team member can contribute to a shared vision. “Here, everyone chimes in with their opinions. We’re all working toward the same vision, and everyone’s perspective matters.” As Di continues to work on infotainment features, she feels grateful for the culture of innovation and camaraderie. She’s not just designing features; she’s helping shape the future of automotive #technology, alongside a team that inspires her every day.
