What I'm looking for

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

As a dedicated Software Engineer with over three years of experience, I specialize in designing and maintaining robust software solutions, particularly in backend development using Go and Java. My journey has been marked by significant contributions to large-scale projects, including API development and the migration of monolithic systems to microservices. I take pride in my ability to resolve technical debts that impact millions of users, enhancing system efficiency and user experience.

At Mercado Pago, I successfully designed a public API that streamlined integration for payment gateway users, significantly reducing complexity. My work on transforming a monolithic email application into a microservice architecture has enabled the handling of millions of transactional emails daily. I am passionate about creating scalable, efficient, and user-centered software, and I thrive in collaborative environments where I can leverage my strong communication skills in English and Spanish.
