I wasn't sold on why we needed this Design Engineer role for the Data Grid (more than others). But since the presentation of the goal for 2024, it now makes a lot more sense to me. I have updated https://www.notion.so/mui-org/Design-Engineer-xGrid-3b9a645faa434fe18fa8ebd5ed2fc086 accordingly.

Moved to last. This should always be secondary to why we are opening roles. Sure, it makes sense to open roles for growth if there is a larger gap to fill that people struggle with, but FIRST talk about that gap.

We hear an even bigger pain around _design_ from developers who adopt projects specialized into one UI component, e.g. data grid. For them, it's not only the default behaviors that need to be great but also the ease of customizing the components to their needs and integrating into the rest of their application.

Up until now, we solved a subset of these problems by specializing in a MUI X Data Grid that deeply integrates with Material UI.
We feel that the timing is right to take a step further and invest in the design of MUI X to have the best data grid not only for Material UI but for **any** React project.

Strategically: It means aiming to make the data grid an entry point to the ecosystem. The vision is that the more entry points a developer has with us, the more likely he will decide to adopt everything else to benefit from native integrations, e.g. Outlook -> Microsoft Team. Gmail -> Google Workspace, iPhone -> Apple watch.

Some slight rephrasing/copy suggestions — otherwise, it looks good!
