Damian Salgado
@damiansalgado
Software architect specializing in scalable .NET and TypeScript systems, modernizing enterprise platforms.
What I'm looking for
I am a software architect with over eight years of experience designing high-performance systems, modular codebases, and scalable .NET ecosystems. I combine deep expertise in C# and TypeScript with a passion for real-time simulation and interactive systems.
I have led remote technical teams, modernized legacy environments into Service Oriented Architectures, and delivered complex automation solutions including CI/CD optimization in Azure DevOps. I built reusable, type-safe component libraries and designed high-availability SOA solutions for data-heavy applications.
My background spans full-stack engineering, technical project management, and systems engineering — from architecting RESTful APIs and optimizing SQL performance to prototyping in Unity and Unreal Engine. I mentor engineers, enforce best practices, and focus on scalable, maintainable solutions.
