Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolVasco Lopes is a Senior Product Designer in Lisbon with over a decade of experience crafting digital products for companies like Booking.com, OLX, Emma and Cloudflare as well as early-stage startups. He blends hands-on front-end development and visualization work—contributing to notable open-source projects around WebGL and force-directed/3D graph visualizations—with product design and design systems practice. As a former Design Manager and lecturer, he mentors designers, builds design strategy, and scales teams while keeping a strong focus on measurable user outcomes. His cross-industry background (telco, travel, automotive, sleep, seafood) gives him a rapid-learning edge for immersing into new domains and shaping product direction quickly. Unusually for a designer, he pairs prototyping and UI craft with code contributions to visualization libraries, demonstrating a rare mix of visual thinking and engineering fluency.
