What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters collaboration, innovation, and growth opportunities.

I’m Gabriel Benavente, and I’m thrilled to share my journey in the world of IT project management with you. My passion lies in transforming complex challenges into clear action plans while fostering high-performance teams that thrive on collaboration. With a background in Software Engineering and ongoing studies for my MBA, I blend technical know-how with a human-centered approach to drive successful outcomes.

Throughout my career, I've had the opportunity to lead diverse projects across various sectors. For instance, at Odoo Concept, I successfully managed six projects simultaneously, ensuring we met deadlines while nurturing strong relationships with stakeholders. One of my proudest moments was resolving conflicts between development teams and clients—turning potential roadblocks into learning opportunities that strengthened our partnerships.

In my previous role at RPG devs, I spearheaded the development of an Emergency Management System while collaborating closely with experts in hazardous materials. This project not only enhanced our service offerings but also taught me valuable lessons about risk management and agile methodologies. Additionally, I played a key role in implementing a data center for Ethereum mining at DQ Ingeniería S.A.S., where we supported 450 amperes generated from solar panels—a project that truly showcased the intersection of technology and sustainability.
