Alejandro García Salas

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

I am a well-rounded product generalist specializing in design, user experience and frontend engineering. Most recently, I was a Founding Software Engineer at Muddy (previously Sail), building a multiplayer web browser for teams. Before this, I was a Senior Software 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 and my portfolio here.

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. 🫶🏽
