Technical Project Delivery

Buenos Aires, Argentina

Professional Summary

Senior Software Engineer with 19+ years of experience building and evolving web products, with a strong focus on technical leadership, product thinking, system design, and AI-assisted workflows.

I work at the intersection of business, product, and engineering—collaborating with stakeholders, translating complex needs into practical technical solutions, identifying trade-offs, and helping cross-functional teams move from ambiguity toward execution.

My recent work focuses on AI systems, workflow automation, integrations, and turning operational processes into software; I'm now seeking a Technical Project Manager opportunity where I can combine that engineering depth with product, requirements, and AI systems delivery.

Focus Areas

  • Technical project and product delivery for complex software systems
  • AI systems, workflow automation & process improvement
  • Business-to-technical requirements translation
  • System architecture, integrations & technical decision-making

Independent Product R&D & AI Consulting

Apr 2026 – Present

Senior Software Engineer — Technical Product & AI Systems

  • Worked directly with Juana Casa's two founding partners and members of the studio team as key stakeholders, clarifying operational knowledge-access needs, defining requirements, and translating them into an initial React/Next.js AI assistant with Mastra and RAG, and specialized Workspace Agents through Slack and WhatsApp.
  • The knowledge-access problem identified with Juana Casa inspired an independent AI knowledge-intelligence product I am developing for companies, with the studio set to serve as its first real-world implementation; I translated that product direction into scope, system boundaries, and an integration approach spanning source-backed RAG and authenticated MCP access.
  • Drove delivery from discovery and prototyping through implementation, testing, and review, using AI-assisted workflows while keeping decisions and outputs explicitly human-verified.
  • Designed and carried out a staged multi-model research initiative across 14 workflows and multiple providers, balancing quality hypotheses with cost, latency, integration, and exploratory evaluation constraints.
