In my experience, you want to demonstrate that you can thoughtfully build products. Fortunately these days with the variety of no-code platforms and accessible design tools, you don't need a technical background to be able to do this. Come up with an idea, or even an idea for an improvement to an existing product. Create a design in Figma, create a simple site in CARRD, connect things to Zapier, do some user testing on UsabilityHub, and before you know it you're demonstrating that you can bring a thoughtful product to life.
