Hi, I’m Carlos Salguero—a senior UX & Product Designer with 14+ years of experience building digital products that feel effortless, but are powered by strategy, systems thinking, and empathy.
I design for clarity, accessibility, and scale—crafting intuitive experiences that grow with users and align tightly with business goals. Whether I’m building from scratch, refining a design system, or collaborating with engineers and product teams, I care deeply about how things work, not just how they look.
Over the years, I’ve worked across industries—telecommunications, logistics, fintech, health, education—helping companies large and small move faster, work smarter, and connect more meaningfully with their users.
My roots in Colombia gave me a lifelong love for storytelling and curiosity—two things that continue to shape the way I approach design. I’m fascinated by how people interact with products, and I’m always exploring how interfaces can feel more thoughtful, inclusive, and human.
Outside of work, I run a blog where I share ideas on design, creativity, AI, and the future of digital experiences. I’m always learning—and always looking for ways to make things simpler, smarter, and more meaningful.
I design end-to-end experiences that balance usability, performance, and business logic. From wireframes to responsive UIs, every decision is intentional. I specialize in projects that require scale, structure, and longevity—often working with design systems, accessibility standards, and iterative validation through user feedback.
I don’t just design screens—I help shape the way design happens. From building systems that support scale to creating processes that empower teams, I focus on aligning people, tools, and goals. I mentor junior designers, facilitate stakeholder alignment, and contribute to cross-functional strategy. Whether it’s running critiques, defining design principles, or refining team workflows, I lead with empathy, clarity, and a bias toward action.
I’ve built and evolved multiple design systems from scratch, most recently for a logistics platform with 17+ distinct user roles. I bring structure and clarity to complex environments, ensuring consistency while allowing for flexibility and growth.
I bridge the gap between design and development using clean HTML/CSS, JavaScript fundamentals, and tools like Webflow. My goal is always to ship thoughtful, responsive, and fast-loading interfaces—whether I’m hands-on in the code or collaborating with engineers.
I embrace the power of AI not as a shortcut, but as an amplifier. From using custom GPTs to streamline design ops, to leveraging Midjourney and Adobe Express & Firefly for creative concepting, I love experimenting with tools that help me work smarter and deliver more.
At mobileLIVE (ML) I work as both a designer and creative leader across multiple sectors, such as Logistics, Telecom, and Banking. Each industry offers unique creative demands and challenges, contributing to a dynamic and rewarding professional journey.

case study
My primary design tool for UI/UX. I use Figma for real-time collaboration, dev handoff, and seamless integration with modern workflows.
A fast, intuitive tool I use for interactive prototypes and motion design. Great for precision work and building functional UI flows.
My creative spark for visual ideation. I use Midjourney to explore AI-powered imagery and generate concept art with bold originality.
Sketch helped shape my UI foundation. I still use it for projects requiring legacy compatibility and fast wireframing across platforms.
I use Webflow to design and develop responsive websites from scratch. It’s where I combine UX design with custom interactions and CMS.
Shopify and Liquid let me build sleek, scalable online stores. I focus on clean design, seamless UX, and global-ready functionality.
Carlos's design skills are second to none. He gives and takes insightful design critiques and has tackled extremely complex design problems in our enterprise software, making the user journeys simple and a joy to use, with beautiful designs, pixel perfect attention to detail and exemplary documentation.
I worked with Carlos supporting TELUS agent desktop design. I always paused to hear his feedback as his insight is almost on-point. If it's not a comment to an eventual solution, it's insight to rethink the proposed design.
Carlos was absolutely amazing to work with. He was able to easily communicate complex development concepts to us and execute them without any issues. On top of that, he is very personable and easy to talk to.
Thank you so much for your hard work, creativity, and positive energy. It was a pleasure working with you. He's genuinely passionate about using user experience to get the best results.
