Alejandro García Salas

I'm a peruvian software engineer based in San Francisco, California. I'm a well-rounded product generalist specializing in design, user experience and frontend engineering. I currently work at Watershed , a climate tech startup helping companies decarbonize. Previously, I was a Founding 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.

I aim to make things that look nice, work well, and are a joy to use. In my spare time, I enjoy making art, visiting museums, watching documentaries, traveling, and going for very long walks.
