What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build and lead high-impact fintech, Web3, or high-availability platforms, combining hands-on architecture and delivery with distributed-team leadership, strong engineering practices, and full US timezone overlap.

I've built production fintech platforms for Olé, Sivo, Valari, and Feanix Biotechnologies, including a just-in-time payroll platform with CFDI invoicing, SPEI transfers, and Stripe Connect, and a global lending platform processing $20M+ monthly.

I lead distributed teams of up to 12 engineers while staying hands-on with TypeScript, React, Next.js, Node.js, GraphQL, PostgreSQL, AWS, and CI/CD. I've also shipped EOS Web3 products including a DeFi lending platform, decentralized exchange, and on-chain messaging application, and I mentor engineers across LATAM through XpectreLabs and NodeSchool Tabasco.
