Luis Bello
Senior Frontend Engineer
I love bringing design systems to life and creating delightful and accessible user experiences.
About
Starting my career as a QA engineer, I've always had an eye for the small details that make a product not only look great, but also performant and bug-free. Since discovering my passion in web development, I've been able to leverage those same skills to build beautiful and accessible user interfaces. I've worked on a variety of projects across different industries, from enterprise grantmaking to cyberscurity and healthcare, always focusing on making such data-dense applications accessible to users.
Currently, I'm focused on building the next generation of decentralized clinical trials at Medable. I thrive at the intersection of design and engineering, creating software that not only looks great but is also robust, accessible, and follows the latest industry best practices.
When I'm not coding, you can usually find me outside with my wife, who's a wildlife ecologist, working on my budding photography hobby. I also enjoy biking, reading, eating all the things, and getting lost in a good FromSoftware game (Praise the Sun!).
