ABOUT × THE PERSON BETWEEN THE PIXELS

Designer by instinct.
Engineer by practice.
Experimenter by curiosity.

I'm Josue Somarribas, a UX Engineer and CRO Developer connecting human behavior, interface craft and production code.

8+ years across UX and web development · Based in Spain · Born in Costa Rica

01 / BETWEEN DISCIPLINES

The work lives
between disciplines.

Good products aren't born in one discipline. They emerge where design thinking, engineering rigor and behavioral insight overlap.

I move across those edges—translating ambiguity into experiments, shaping interfaces that respect people, and building the systems that make learning repeatable.

From Costa Rica to Barcelona, the same thread guides me: curiosity applied with craft.

02 / PROCESS

How I think

01

Find the real question.

I start by getting curious about the right problem.

02

Make the invisible testable.

I design small, low-risk ways to see the signal.

03

Ship the learning.

I build, measure and ship what moves us forward.

Four field notes about clarity, experimentation, craft and ethical measurement
03 / PATH

A path shaped
by making.

I didn't follow a straight line. I followed curiosity, and kept building.

04 / BEYOND WORK

Outside the
interface.

Hospitality taught me empathy. Travel taught me perspective. Costa Rica raised my roots. Barcelona feeds my curiosity.

Good conversations and strong coffee keep me going.
