About

Hi, I’m Javier.

I’ve spent more than 25 years designing digital products. My favourite part is still finding out where people get stuck and building something that makes their work easier. Today, AI is part of how I do that, from early exploration through prototyping and delivery.

Making complex work easier to navigate

At Accenture I worked on an SAP-based employee tool. At the European Patent Office I contributed to digital patent registration, and at Allianz Technology I designed business applications for teams across countries. Talking to the people doing the work helped me decide what to simplify and what the process needed to keep.

From discovery to delivery at Sunrise

I led the redesign of My Sunrise, the portal where customers manage products, bills and contracts. I also led Sunrise Rewards from concept through the design of the portal and app. On both projects I combined research, workshops and prototype testing with a UI kit connected to the company’s design system.

How I work with AI today

I bring AI into the workflow from the start. I use agents to explore options, build prototypes and prepare handovers with rules the team can review. At Sunrise I implemented and tested a Figma-connected design system for front-end developers and agents, a plugin that checks component usage and prepares structured handovers, and a pilot that organises feedback for Product Owners. The app’s front-end team also tested the handover workflow.

I like sharing what I learn

I’ve mentored more than 100 UX students at CareerFoundry and coordinated master’s-level training at IED Madrid. I bring that experience to workshops and mentoring today. I’m also preparing ProductCrafter, a school and community where people can practise these ways of working together.

What I bring today

  • Product and UX

    Research, facilitation, product strategy, prototyping, validation and accessibility.

  • DesignOps and design systems

    Tokens, component contracts and handover workflows connecting Figma, agents and front-end. I work with Figma MCP, GitHub, React and Storybook.

  • Applied AI for product

    Agent workflows, automation, tool selection and output evaluation. My toolkit includes Claude Code, Codex, ChatGPT, Cursor, Lovable and n8n. I use Supabase and Hostinger when a prototype needs data or hosting.

  • Training and adoption

    Workshops and mentoring that help design, product and development teams apply these practices to their own projects.
