👋 About me

Bilingual Electronics Engineer (Spanish/English C2) with 5+ years of experience in IT consulting, corporate IT infrastructure, scientific research, intelligent transportation, and banking, in both employee and independent roles across Latin America. That multi-domain background shaped a systems-first approach: I think in terms of architecture, from the data layer to the business layer, and design accordingly, always weighing what a decision costs or saves the business, not just whether it works technically.

💼 What I focus on

  • LLM Integration: multi-model AI platforms, self-hosted and API-based, taken from prototype to cloud deployment and validated end-to-end.
  • Automation: workflow orchestration and reporting pipelines built to fail safely, with automatic validation and retries instead of silent errors.
  • Cloud & DevOps: containerized deployment and infrastructure as code, with every component validated on deployment, not assumed to work.
  • AI-assisted development: I use native AI tools (Claude Code) as part of my daily development workflow.

🛠️ How I work

  • Architecture in writing before code: scoped, documented decisions so any team member can maintain the system, not just me.
  • LLM output is untrusted until proven otherwise: generated content passes deterministic checks — format assertions, schema validation, retries with backoff — before anything ships.
  • Pipelines fail closed, not open: health checks block a pipeline from advancing on integrity failures — row counts, referential checks, access rules — instead of letting bad data reach a dashboard.
  • Reproducible by default: containerized, version-pinned configs that behave identically across dev, staging, and production — no "works on my machine."
  • Honest scope: explicit about what's a prototype and what's in production, without claiming results I can't back up.

📍 Caracas, Venezuela (UTC-4, full overlap with US business hours) · Open to independent remote, hybrid or on-site work.
