after about 2 years taking a break from Product Design work with early-stage startups, I'm officially back looking for my next full-time role as an AI-Native Design Engineer. past work and experience otherplace.studio/andres I took the past year to focus on evolving my process and completely rethink my workflow as a designer. AI has completely changed the way we work, with this new frontier in tech I've been able to take the product design knowledge I've accumulated over the years and now apply it by closing the gap between static design and code handoff. before the long much needed break, I've had the pleasure of working with and have come across many talented folks in tech, design and engineering. to name a few: @tiff_ishh (partner in crime in all things) @deereis (incredibly talented designer, had the pleasure working alongside Adriano on the @Planhat. This was a very fun project and had such a blast building a part of it) @iamcurtisr (was a pleasure working with Curtis on fgx.com under my studio Otherplace a few years ago) @OlegKostour (Gave me my first job as a product designer in SF working with him on Couple App and later acquired by @Life360, Oleg started a new company recently out of YC @AtlasGridAI) @jornvandijk (always a supporter of my work, have appreciated the times he's invited me to check out the latest they're doing @framer) @andreatoso (the best design hire I made during my time as head of design at Wisely who now has moved on to do some amazing work @PursuitGov) @thesergie (Years ago I had the oppurtunity to meet Sergie and the pleasure to do some contract design work on one of the og versions of @webflow, just a small part of what they were building, very grateful to have been able to have some part in it) Someone I've looked up to for mentorship and has given some sound advice, I appreciate all those times you pushed me toward clarity @TMFelous and last but not least, the great @MikeVichich who against all odds proactively supported me as a very unconventional designer and backed me up even when others thought I was a bit too different in the way I work for them. many others, can't name them all here. so what's next? well, I'm looking to align with early-stage to growth stage startups in the AI space looking for a dedicated Design Engineer to join their team. The spaces I'm interested in are: AI-native product tools, Devtools and builder tools, Agent infrastructure, design-to-code tools, Data, analytics, and intelligence and Fintech/crypto. Shoot me a DM / Open to intros and connects. --- While in this new job/life transition, to align my skills with the ever changing landscape of AI, I've currently applied my new AI-Native workflow and Design skillset to a new tool alongside @tiff_ishh (GTM and product strategy genius) called @tenordesign, "The visual canvas for AI coding agents. Import frontend components onto a canvas that your AI agents can use to iterate on and sync back to your real codebase." slowly but steadily growing this user base on the side and following closely how AI is changing how we work. we've learned so much from building this already. if you're curious you can check it out here: tenor.design
