Mauricio Santos

I've built and delivered full-stack applications end-to-end at Scala Colombia, from architecture through deployment and production support. I designed scalable architecture that accelerated feature delivery by 30%, improved Core Web Vitals by up to 40%, and optimized GraphQL queries, APIs, and backend communication.

I build backend services and integrations that support business logic and faster product iteration. I use JavaScript, TypeScript, Node.js, NestJS, React, Next.js, MySQL, Docker, and AI-assisted tools including Claude Code, Claude, and ChatGPT in my daily workflow.

At Aura, I modernized legacy applications to improve performance, scalability, maintainability, and product value. I delivered features, resolved critical production issues, created reusable components, implemented unit tests, and promoted clean code through backend reviews.

I'm deeply curious about how things are built and passionate about human-centered design. I enjoy teaching, mentoring, and helping collaborative teams tackle complex challenges while achieving ambitious goals together.
