David Domingo

Product Engineer · Los Angeles, CA

I build products end to end, schema to interface, and I have spent the last two years doing it as a founder; which means every technical decision I made had a customer attached to it.

I love building things from 0 → 1, taking ideas that start as sketches or late-night thoughts and turning them into real, working products. I thrive in fast-paced startup environments, where things move quickly, ownership runs deep, and every decision matters.

I run Garaje, a two-sided marketplace for the automotive community in the Philippines, from Los Angeles. I also ship client work and side products. In all of it I am the person writing the code, not the person reviewing someone else's.

What I care about is the loop: what users need, what the system can express, and what the business can sustain. Most of my best decisions have been deletions.
