Backend Engineer · AI Systems · Founder · Former CTO
I build production systems end to end — from backend services and AI agents to cloud infrastructure, mobile apps, and embedded hardware.
I'm a software engineer from Montevideo, Uruguay, with 7+ years of experience building and scaling products.
Currently, I lead engineering for an AI platform used by private equity firms. My work includes agent orchestration, document intelligence, retrieval systems, evaluation, observability, and backend infrastructure.
Previously, I:
- Built a travel technology platform from its first commit to 100,000+ active users, later becoming its CTO.
- Founded PlayPong, a fully autonomous 24/7 entertainment venue.
- Built systems spanning backend APIs, mobile apps, payments, cloud infrastructure, Bluetooth hardware, firmware, and physical access control.
- Led and mentored engineering teams while remaining hands-on with architecture and implementation.
My favorite language is Python, and I'm especially interested in backend engineering, AI systems, distributed services, and developer infrastructure.
An autonomous, staff-free entertainment venue combining software, hardware, and operations.
- Reached 10,000 users and became one of Uruguay’s most downloaded apps.
- Built automated payments, door access, HVAC, music, security communication, and remote operations.
- Created a Bluetooth scoring system using custom hardware integrations.
- Built a rolling video replay system that delivered the previous 30 seconds of a match to the players’ mobile app.
- Operated profitably from its first month.
A travel technology platform for group travel.
- Built the initial product as its sole engineer.
- Scaled it to 100,000+ active users.
- Developed its backend, administration platform, mobile apps, social features, messaging, and parent portal.
- Built offline-first RFID and QR attendance systems for environments without reliable connectivity.
- Progressed from engineer to technical lead and CTO.
- PlayPong — Featured by InfoNegocios Uruguay as the first fully autonomous 24/7 entertainment venue in the region.
- Viaxlab — Featured by El País Uruguay for its growth across Latin America and expansion into Europe.
- Contributor to LiteLLM and OpenClaw.
- Built Cloison Runtime, an experimental multi-tenant runtime that uses Linux namespaces to isolate AI agents without Docker.
- Built integrations across AI agents, embedded hardware, Bluetooth devices, payments, and cloud services.
