## About

```text
At Nexus (now EOS), I closed four hires in my first two months, including the first within the first month, through a six-stage process. I recruited Systems Engineers and Backend Engineers focused on low-latency, concurrency, and distributed systems.

At First Line Software, I led end-to-end recruitment for specialized IT roles across global markets. I handled hard-to-fill searches in Application Security, Data Engineering, DevOps, and Business Intelligence, delivering up to 26 hires in a single year.

At Atom Chat, I managed full-cycle hiring for a B2B chatbot product company, recruiting across Latin America and supporting regional expansion by building local tech talent pipelines in Colombia and Argentina.

I began in IT recruitment at Consultora Gestal after completing its intensive training program. Before that, I worked as a Clinical Psychologist in hospital, private practice, and community settings.
