I'm a tech lead backend engineer specializing in distributed systems and scalable services.
MexicoWhat I'm looking for

I have led multicultural teams, written and reviewed design documents, and driven projects in governance and consumer segmentation with measurable impact.
I focus on distributed systems, systems design, and strong engineering practices, and I enjoy mentoring new joiners, interviewing candidates, and collaborating cross-functionally to ship reliable, scalable services. I continuously learn new technologies and share knowledge, combining hands-on implementation with leadership to deliver high-quality software.
