AI-accelerated software for regulated industries
I build production-grade backends for fintech, banking, and e-commerce: payment integrations, event pipelines, legacy modernization, and practical AI agents that ship fast and pass audit.
Notes from engineers, managers, and founders I've shipped real things with. The highlighted ones are the ones I'd point a recruiter to first.
I write software that handles real money and real customers. Banks, online stores, and more recently AI assistants that do real work instead of just chatting. The common thread across all of it: when this system fails, somebody loses money or trust, and that's the part I take seriously.
I started in my early twenties in Valencia, Venezuela, building CMSes and city-hall systems in PHP. Eighteen years later I'm still doing the same thing, just at a different scale: today the “websites” handle millions of transactions and the “small business” is sometimes a regional bank.
Along the way I've been a senior engineer, a tech lead, an engineering manager, and now a founder. I prefer staying close to the code. The titles change; the work, careful, audited, end-to-end, does not.
Outside the screen: husband, runner, and a slow but stubborn believer that good software is mostly about taking other people seriously.
