About me

Hi, I‘m Vicente González

Sr. Product Designer & Frontend dev

I’m a Senior Product Designer with over twelve years of experience in UX/UI design and frontend development, based in Madrid. Currently, I lead the design system efforts at bbg Bitbase Group GmbH, where I conceptualize and create digital products that enable companies to amplify their impact in the digital space.

My foundation lies in software development, particularly frontend, positioning my expertise at the intersection of design and development. This unique blend allows me to excel in the development and implementation of design systems and digital experiences with a strong technical and data-driven approach. I’m adept at bridging the gap between design and development teams, ensuring seamless collaboration to solve complex, technical challenges.

I’m deeply committed to values such as human connection, sensitivity, accessibility, equity, growth, and openness. I thrive on tackling difficult human problems through design. My long-term aspiration is to become a compassionate, open-minded, and accessible design leader. For now, I’m thoroughly enjoying the journey of designing and developing innovative solutions, fueled by curiosity and my passion for creating products people love to use.

what moves me?

"I am driven by curiosity and my passion to design products that people love to use".
