Josefina Terrera · Senior Technical Lead · Design + frontend engineering
I lead technical work at Out & About Communications and use this portfolio to document how product judgment, design, and implementation become one connected system.
Tools can accelerate production. The harder work is understanding the problem, deciding what belongs, making thoughtful tradeoffs, and being accountable for the result. That is the work I bring to every project.
Each case study shows the problem, constraints, decisions, and finished experience, not just the final screens.
Featured case study
Clarísimo already had 35+ years of trust in Recoleta. The website turns that reputation into something visitors can see fast: vivid event imagery, clear catering paths, and an inquiry flow that helps people ask for the right proposal.
Hemaka
WEB CONSULTANCY
This formative work shaped my craft: animation, the right framework for each project, and ownership from kickoff to launch.
Where the craft took shape
FRASCO
FOOD DELIVERY
Business-plan-led spec brand, returnable jar model, and menu system for a weekly dinner service.
Spec case study
Foursquare
DESIGN + BUILD
A planning-led contractor experience shaped across business strategy, custom imagery, answer-ready content, site search, and frontend.
Pre-launch case story
The work moves across disciplines, but the sequence stays consistent: understand the decision, shape the system, build it responsibly, and verify the result under real conditions.
I examine the goal, audience, evidence, constraints, and unresolved questions before treating the interface as the answer.
Positioning, information architecture, content, interaction, and technical choices develop together instead of arriving as disconnected handoffs.
I prototype, write, design, and engineer with accessibility, performance, responsive behavior, and long-term upkeep treated as product requirements.
I test the work across browsers, devices, motion preferences, content states, and launch boundaries, then use the evidence to refine it.
What this portfolio demonstrates
I’m a Senior Technical Lead at Out & About Communications. I’ve spent more than a decade building for the web, from tightly regulated organizations with complex approval processes to small teams that make decisions in a day. I’m comfortable moving through ambiguity, explaining tradeoffs, and turning competing requirements into a clear path forward.
My work combines the taste to recognize what feels coherent with the engineering judgment to make it work under real conditions. That means accessible interfaces, maintainable code, thoughtful performance, clear communication, and fewer surprises between idea and launch.
This site collects independent client work, clearly labeled spec systems, and formative projects that let me explore the full path from positioning to production. I also take on selected independent projects for hospitality, food, local services, cultural organizations, and founder-led businesses.
I bring that same product-minded perspective to frontend and design engineering: thoughtful systems, strong collaboration, and care from the first question to the final detail.
"Josefina helped us explain what we do in a way customers understood. The process was organized, thoughtful, and much easier than past website projects."
Selected professional, independent, formative, and speculative work across product thinking, design, content, and frontend engineering.
No. Clarísimo is independent client work, Hemaka is formative professional work, and Frasco and Foursquare are explicitly labeled spec systems.
For research, prototyping, content and visual exploration, production support, and QA. Final decisions, review, and accountability remain human.
Yes. I take on selected work for hospitality, food, local services, cultural organizations, and founder-led businesses—especially projects that benefit from one person connecting positioning, design, content, and implementation.
I’m a Senior Technical Lead at Out & About Communications. My independent work focuses on hospitality, food, local services, cultural organizations, and founder-led businesses.
