Summary
Federico Melo is a senior front-end developer and accessibility consultant with over a decade of experience in UI/UX design and web development, currently working at Hiberus. He brings deep expertise in semantic HTML, CSS architecture (OOCSS, BEM, SMACSS), preprocessors (SASS/SCSS, LESS) and JavaScript, and has a strong track record converting PSD designs into high-performance, scalable front-end systems. His background spans leading small teams and agencies to embedded roles at companies like Ricoh España, combining hands-on implementation with design leadership. Based in Colonia del Sacramento, Uruguay, he pairs traditional graphic design training with practical engineering discipline from studies in computer science. As an accessibility consultant he focuses on making complex interfaces usable and performant, drawing on years of version-controlled, production-grade workflows. Less obvious: he has repeatedly transitioned between director-level and individual-contributor roles, giving him both strategic vision and day-to-day execution skills.
