Caleb Sylvest, Design Engineer
I design and build software, from research and UX through to production code. For 15 years I’ve shipped products for startups, agencies, and brands, most recently at Musicbed.
Now I design and build full-stack apps with AI tools like Claude Code. Based in Dallas, Texas, working remotely.
Reach me by or on LinkedIn.
The future belongs to designers who build.
I close the gap between the Figma file and the shipped product, so the details survive the handoff—because there isn’t one.
