"I've had the pleasure of working with Justo at Mathworks, and he is an exceptional product designer. While working on the same design team, I was fortunate to experience how well he works with others. He is a great team player who enjoys collaborating with designers, researchers, engineers, and other stakeholders. "

Verónica Aguilar

"I was part of a design team led by Justo and reported directly to him. Justo was a great example of organization and design leadership. Working with Justo was a delightful experience because of his methods of sharing the best design practices. Justo taught me skills that shaped me as a product designer; he is a great human, coworker, and designer. "

Juan Montoya

Josh Laincz

"I had the immense pleasure to hire Justo. He spearheaded, owned, and nurtured that design system through a few iterations over the last 5 years. It grew into an incredibly flexible yet robust system that scaled amazingly well. He is an excellent product designer with the ability to manage intense, component-based systems or help iterate on existing systems."
