About
I'm based in Colombia and spend most of my time thinking about how AI systems actually work in production. Not just in demos.
I speak English, Spanish, and Portuguese. I build things with code. I run marathons (slowly). I'm a husband. And I'm curious about way too many things.
What I Work On
Most of my professional time goes into these areas. This is what I actually do.
AI Systems Architecture
Design multi-agent solutions, RAG pipelines, and MCP-compatible tools. I like figuring out how the pieces fit together.
Full-Stack Development
Build end-to-end: backend, frontend, infrastructure, deployment. I enjoy seeing ideas become real software people use.
Technical Project Management
Translate between engineers and stakeholders. Help both sides understand what the other actually needs.
Product Development
Take ideas from concept to production. Figure out what to build, build it, ship it, and iterate based on real usage.
Problem Solving
When projects feel stuck, I like digging into why. Finding blockers, realigning expectations, and getting teams moving again.
Team Leadership
Create systems for continuous improvement, align incentives, remove blockers, celebrate wins.
Life Beyond Work
Work is important. It's not everything. These are the things that keep me grounded and energized.
Family
My foundation. Everything I build, I build for them. They're my why, my motivation, and my greatest blessing.
Running & Marathons
I've completed multiple marathons and trail races. Running is where I clear my head, push my limits, and prove to myself that endurance matters.
Extreme Sports
Paragliding, mountain biking, and anything that gets the adrenaline going. Life's too short to stay comfortable.
Reading
Biographies, business strategy, and science fiction. I aim for 30-40 books per year, balancing professional development with pure escapism.

Books That Shaped How I Think
A few books I keep coming back to. They've influenced how I approach problems and think about technology.
La Biblia
Mi centro. Everything else is commentary. Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and the Gospels shape how I see work, relationships, and purpose.
Designing Data-Intensive Applications
by Martin Kleppmann
The most referenced book on my shelf. Whenever I'm designing a system that needs to scale, I return to Kleppmann's explanations of consistency models, replication strategies, and distributed system trade-offs.
The Manager's Path
by Camille Fournier
Even as an IC-leaning engineer, this book is invaluable for understanding how to work with managers effectively and what to expect if you ever decide to lead people.
Staff Engineer
by Will Larson
Essential reading for navigating senior IC tracks. The archetypes framework helped me understand where I add the most value, at the intersection of technical depth and organizational influence.
The Goal
by Eliyahu M. Goldratt
A business novel that made Theory of Constraints click. The idea that any system has one constraint that determines throughput transformed how I think about project bottlenecks and resource allocation.
Thinking in Systems
by Donella H. Meadows
Changed how I approach complex problems. The concept of leverage points (places where small interventions yield large effects) directly influences how I prioritize work and architect systems.
