At Home Builders Network (HBN) / RealTorch, I architected a Python, OCR, and LLM pipeline that digitized, categorized, and indexed over 400 legacy technical publications into structured Markdown.

I engineered backend microservices with .NET (C#) and FastAPI, integrated with PostgreSQL and the Claude API (Atlas). I also built responsive applications with React, Next.js, and TypeScript.

For my capstone thesis project at Universidad Nacional de Chimborazo, I developed an analytical platform for academic processes and a Random Forest model that achieved 94.2% sensitivity for early risk detection. Automated ETL pipelines and a Balanced Scorecard dashboard provided real-time KPI monitoring with 0.45-second data latency.

At Unidad Educativa Vigotsky, I led an overhaul and deployment of the institution’s core WordPress platform and carried out a database migration. At Majes Quim, I designed and launched a responsive corporate website focused on UI optimization and performance.
