I’m a senior software engineer architecting scalable full-stack web applications.
MexicoWhat I'm looking for
I’m a senior software engineer with over 10 years of experience architecting full-stack web applications for global products like Change.org and Taskrabbit. I focus on maintainability, continuous delivery, and cross-functional collaboration to drive both business value and technical excellence.
At Change.org, I architect scalable solutions for high-availability, performant user experiences and lead initiatives to improve deployment frequency and system maintainability using modern Ruby on Rails and React patterns. Previously at Taskrabbit, I led international rollouts, built a high-performance in-site language switching feature, engineered a Public API for strategic partners, optimized core algorithms for speed, and served as an SME for internal translation tools—while also mentoring developers through HackHands.
