Hello

My name is Juan.

I'm a data engineer and software developer experienced in building data infrastructure, pipelines, and agentic workflows. I obsess over the details in everything I make.

What do you know about me?

You're happiest in the same room as other builders: Stanford's ASES Summit, SF Tech Week, a hackathon almost every month. Your WhatsApp finance agent took Top 3 at Colombia Tech Week. Lately you sketch hardware, like a collar whose lights pulse with sound, and you want to get deeper into design engineering and applied AI. Off the keyboard: running, Muay Thai, and a snowboard trip on the horizon.

With me, you're in the driver's seat. “Explain it simply.” “Refute me.” “Don't change anything yet.” You won't ship what you don't understand, you call out overengineering, and you have a sharp eye for what feels right, from minimal design to words that sound like you.
