Embedded in enterprise engineering teams delivering cloud-native, distributed systems end-to-end — from application code to infrastructure as code — while moving delivery into an AI-native loop with Claude Code, Kiro and AI-DLC / Loop Engineering practices.

• Adopted AI-native development (Claude Code, Kiro, AI-DLC / Loop Engineering) to design, build and ship production-ready systems, and matured these practices for how engineering teams adopt them.
• Built an internal knowledge platform with a bidirectional MCP server and semantic search (vector embeddings on Amazon Bedrock), enabling AI agents to both search and create knowledge.
• Architected cloud-native distributed systems for enterprise programs in regulated industries — financial services, aerospace, energy — navigating compliance and data-sovereignty constraints.
• Developed reusable Terraform modules, deployment patterns and internal tooling that other engineering teams build on.
• Led engagements across LATAM, presenting architecture and delivery strategy to C-level and technical stakeholders in English, Spanish and Portuguese.

Architected and implemented cloud-native solutions embedded within enterprise client teams, operating under legacy, compliance and data-sovereignty constraints.

• Designed and shipped cloud-native applications end-to-end, from ideation through production.
• Developed Terraform modules across basic and advanced infrastructure patterns for application deployments on AWS.
• Applied software engineering practices to infrastructure as code to standardize and accelerate cloud adoption across client development teams.
• Worked hands-on with serverless and container stacks: Lambda, ECS/EKS, API Gateway, DynamoDB, S3, SQS/SNS.

Owned the observability foundation for a large-scale direct-to-consumer streaming launch, spanning frontend, backend and infrastructure layers.

• Built an end-to-end observability platform integrating AppDynamics, Grafana, Prometheus and Zabbix into a unified monitoring solution.
• Instrumented frontend (Angular) and backend (Spring Boot) services alongside infrastructure to support a high-traffic launch.

Application architect for web and mobile products, designing distributed systems and integration layers across large enterprise programs.

• Architected web and mobile products (React, Angular, Android, iOS, Flutter frontends with Node.js backends), designing the integration layers connecting apps, APIs and enterprise platforms.
• Built and integrated large-scale distributed systems across batch and real-time processing, connecting enterprise platforms in retail, telecom and e-commerce.
• Delivered across the full SDLC for enterprise clients, from requirements through production.
