Context Design
Context engineering is about building systems that pull in the right context for an AI model. Context design is the human side of that: understanding people and how they use something, and working out what context needs to go in. It is a design skill as much as a possible job title (a "Context Designer"). See also Context Architecture and Great Role Confusion.
