Alejandro García Salas

Hello! I'm a peruvian software engineer and artist based in San Francisco, California.

I specialize in user experience and frontend engineering. I'm working as a Founding Software Engineer at Muddy, building a collaborative web browser. Before this, I was a Senior Frontend Engineer at Airbnb, prototyping new search experiences. I studied computer science at UC Berkeley, with a focus on human-computer interaction. During college, I interned at Airbnb and Pinterest, working on design systems and web infrastructure. In high school, I interned at Laboratoria, a web development bootcamp and at Ayu, a digital agency in Lima, Perú. You can find my full résumé here. Portfolio available upon request.

I first got into tech by making my own video games, and I haven't stopped making things ever since. Outside of work, I enjoy drawing and painting, visiting museums, watching documentaries, traveling, learning new languages, taking very long walks, and drinking tea.

I strive to live a life of adventure and service while building the future I want to see. I live with optimism, seeking balance and authenticity in everything I do. I exist first and foremost to love.
