UX Architect / Designer / Engineer

Gabriel Martin

I'm a UX Architect, Designer, and Engineer (often called Design Engineer these days) with 15 years bridging design and front-end engineering. I'm as comfortable in code as in Figma, or in a feature ticket, and I know when each is best. I've held engineering, design, and product architect roles, giving me experience understanding what each side needs and where things break down between them. I've built and scaled design systems, pattern libraries, and front-end component workflows that cement design intent without the telephone game between design and engineering.

In my experience, projects almost always ship because one single person makes them ship. To be clear, that person doesn't write all the code or do all the work, and I'm not saying the project could ship without an entire team behind it. But it's really important that one person on the project has an end-to-end understanding of the whole thing: how it hangs together technically, and what product or business purpose it serves.

About Gabriel Martin

Hi, I'm Gabriel, the quote above is how I aspire to deliver value within a team.

I bring 15 years of experience across UX disciplines, engineering, design, and user research. This variety of experiences helps me bring diverse perspectives and expertise together, understand user and business needs, and have the technical and design chops to help teams transform complex challenges into elegant solutions that users love.

I believe the secret is to use that experience to be a bridging force within cross-disciplinary teams, so we can represent the best of all of our vision, to set our sights on delivering technically robust, intuitive to use, and accessible products for all.
