What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a team that values end-to-end ownership, AI-assisted engineering, and clean CI/CD with IaC. I want to build reliable web + mobile products with strong validation of business rules and scalable deployments.

I’m a full-stack web and mobile developer with 6+ years delivering production applications for clients across the US, Europe, and Latam. I bring an “above senioritylevel” approach to reliability, automation, and business-logic validation—end to end.

Former pediatrician and hospital director, I combine clinical system thinking with domain expertise to build healthcare-grade software. I’m especially effective at translating real operational constraints into robust workflows, models, and validation rules.

In my recent roles, I’ve integrated AI tooling into the SDLC: agentic workflows, automated test generation, structured refactoring, CI automation, and business logic validation. I lead cloud infrastructure and deployment practices (CI/CD, IaC) to keep delivery predictable in medium-scale production environments.

I also contribute to open-source (Spanish translation of the VueJS 3 docs) and have completed 14+ freelance major projects with 60%+ rehire and strong client satisfaction. I enjoy building modern web experiences with Vue/Nuxt/React/Next/Laravel/Node and mobile features with Flutter—always adapting the stack to the client’s timeline and constraints.
