Human-centered software development, or HCSD, ensures software solutions satisfy user needs and expectations. To improve product quality, this study explores how to integrate Agile techniques with User Experience (UX) design inside HCSD. The study's primary goals are to highlight critical results and best practices, investigate the benefits and problems of merging Agile techniques with UX design, and discuss the policy ramifications for businesses. The integration of UX design with Agile processes is examined in this study using a qualitative research methodology that draws on case studies, expert insights, and a literature survey. Essential conclusions include the value of scalable frameworks, transparent communication, cross-functional cooperation, and iterative design. The policy implications emphasize that to overcome integration problems and reap the benefits of HCSD; organizations must invest in UX design expertise, cultural transformation, and the strategic execution of policies. This research highlights the need to incorporate Agile approaches and UX design into HCSD to improve customer satisfaction and product quality. It also provides valuable information for companies looking to implement this strategy successfully.
