Robert DeLuca Portrait

Hi, I'm Robert DeLuca!

I'm a software engineer who loves building awesome, accessible front-end experiences—web, native apps, or APIs, I've done it all. I've spent time delving deep into visual testing at Percy (now BrowserStack), where I created a plethora of content and supported developer communities. I even contributed to helping Visa Checkout achieve WCAG 2.0 compliance, ensuring accessibility for millions.

Tech always excites me—whether it's tinkering with IoT gadgets, experimenting with Large Language Models, or building tools like my macOS app, DraftPatch.

When I step away from the keyboard, you'll find me wrenching on my 1995 NA8 Spec Miata (#20) or racing it in the SCCA Spec Miata Southwest Division. Nothing beats the thrill of chasing the perfect lap! 🏎️🏁

Let's connect and geek out sometime!
