What I'm looking for

I am looking for a job:

  • That offers flexibility in terms of work hours, location, and responsibilities. I am a self-motivated and organized individual who is able to work independently and as part of a team.

  • Where I can be challenged and have a direct impact on the success of the company.

  • Offers opportunities for career development. I am eager to learn new things and ways to grow my skills.

I have been a software engineer for over 7 years, and I have a strong track record of success in developing and delivering high-quality software.

In my current role at Globant, I'm responsible for developing new features for PlutoTV,  a streaming company with over 40 million monthly active users. I used a variety of technologies, including React, Redux, and Jest. I also have experience with Node, Express, MongoDB, and Postgres.

While working at Lentesplus (Startup) I lead Product, QA, and Engineering teams for B2C and B2B segments, overachieving KPIs like conversión rate and site load times by analyzing conversion funnel and Google Analytics data.

I am a highly motivated and results-oriented individual. I am also a team player and I can work effectively under pressure. I am confident that I have the skills and experience that you seek in a Software Engineer.

I am eager to learn new technologies and I am always looking for new challenges.
