Hi, I'm Santiago Echague Ferrero, a Product Designer and Front-End Developer with 15+ years of turning complex business needs into user-friendly digital experiences. I blend UX/UI design with front-end implementation to deliver scalable, polished products for retail, fintech, and tech. As a freelancer for the past decade, I've shipped over 60 digital products—from eCommerce platforms and self-order kiosks to responsive corporate sites—collaborating directly with clients to boost conversions, usability, and brand cohesion. Beyond visuals, I enjoy research-driven design and building design systems in Figma that keep teams aligned across projects. I’m fluent in English and Spanish, comfortable collaborating with product, marketing, and engineering teams, and I’m always looking for opportunities to create intuitive experiences that delight users while meeting business goals.
