Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDavid Aragonés is a Principal Product Designer with over eight years of experience leading design systems and cross-functional teams at Liferay, where he now heads Research, Design Systems, and Des-ops. He combines hands-on design leadership—having driven the evolution and flexibility of a public-facing design system and presented at Friends of Figma—with people management and hiring rigor, including building role-specific challenge catalogs. Based in Guadalajara, he balances nurturing solo designers’ growth with coordinating distributed teams (including US-based reports) and monthly alignment with product managers. His background spans telecom and healthcare UX to interactive prototyping and front-end implementation, giving him a rare blend of systems thinking and practical UI engineering. David stays intentionally hands-on and curious, continuously updating his craft to keep the design system both usable and accessible at scale.
