About

Software Engineer and UTDT graduate (GPA 9.13) specializing in advanced AI architectures: Agentic Workflows, RAG systems, and end-to-end automation solutions. Proven track record leading complex technical integrations in high-pressure startup environments. Bilingual Spanish/English (C1), with foundational German (A2).

Experience

AI Engineer — Operational Agent Lead

FEX (OpsTech Startup — AI-Assisted Legacy ERP Integration)

Sep. 2025 – Present
BackendAIInfraLeadership
  • Lead the development of FEX's Operational Agent, the company's flagship product: an AI system that ingests client-uploaded invoices and automatically processes them into their respective ERPs.
  • Led technical integration with Bejerman (Thomson Reuters legacy ERP), resolving interoperability with undocumented on-premise SOAP/XML systems.
  • Implemented an invoice auto-loading workflow that eliminated manual form-filling for 40% of processed invoices, reducing user time to 0 for those cases.[40% de facturas procesadas sin intervención del usuario]
  • Designed and implemented a multi-role invoice approval workflow (inspired by GitHub PRs and SAP release strategies) for enterprise expense control.
  • Implemented end-to-end logging and monitoring systems to ensure stability and performance of AI-driven features in production.
  • Led a 100% AI-native development culture, making architecture decisions and accelerating delivery cycles through AI tooling.

Co-Founder & CTO

Orion Studio Automation

Feb. 2026 – Present
BackendAIInfraLeadershipdata
  • Co-founded Orion, an automation consultancy focused on the insurance sector. Paying recurring client since the first quarter (insurance broker), with active conversations with Ar-Vida and Paraná Seguros insurers to scale the solution across their full broker networks.
  • Designed and implemented a 5-tier entity resolution pipeline (canonical normalization, token subset/overlap analysis, Levenshtein fuzzy matching, LLM semantic validation) matching ~4,280 contacts against ~250 monthly policy renewals, targeting >90% match rate.
  • Self-hosted cloud architecture: Hetzner VPS CX23 (Ubuntu 24.04) with Docker Compose (n8n + PostgreSQL 16 + Redis + Evolution API / WhatsApp gateway), Cloudflare zero-trust tunnel, automated daily backups to Google Drive. Migrated from a prior on-premise deployment on a repurposed personal machine.
  • As CTO, I own infrastructure, major implementations, and server operations; I keep the platform stable enough that my co-founder (CEO) can directly edit specific n8n nodes and handle client needs without blocking on me.

Co-Founder & CEO

Kora

Apr. 2025 – Present
AIProductLeadershipBackend
  • Co-founded and lead strategically and technically a SaaS startup focused on digital onboarding automation.
  • Designed and implemented a RAG system with a dynamic knowledge base using plain-text files as user-editable memory, with an index system for efficient contextual access.
  • Developed an editable 'Agent Memory' feature, enabling direct context management and real-time customization of AI behavior.
  • Defined the technical roadmap and scalable infrastructure aligned with user retention objectives.

Co-Founder & CTO

Pickap

Feb. 2024 – Feb. 2026
BackendFrontendProductLeadership
  • Led full-stack development of a gastronomy ordering platform with scalable architecture (React, Node.js, Firebase).
  • Designed and implemented RESTful APIs and integrations with Mercado Pago and Fudo.
  • Managed the technical roadmap, real-user validation, and public product launch.
  • Automated internal processes using Python and serverless architecture, improving operational efficiency.

Teaching Assistant

Universidad Torcuato Di Tella

Feb. 2023 – Present
Teaching
  • Teach practical classes and evaluate assessments in Algorithm Design, Computer Systems, and Introduction to Programming.
  • Developed the ability to explain complex technical concepts clearly to diverse audiences — directly applicable to technical consulting and communicating with non-technical stakeholders.

Projects

Conversational AI Agent for Soyana (Undergraduate Thesis)

2025
aibeproduct
  • Developed an autonomous sales agent using AI (Gemini, Whisper) to automate orders, integrated into Telegram and orchestrated with n8n on GCP (139 nodes, 11 use cases).
  • Specialized multi-agent architecture: Router Agent, Conversational Agent, Order Validator — each with a focused task to optimize debugging and prompt performance.
  • Automated 11 critical use cases including order intake with disambiguation, volume discounts, order history queries, and human handoff.
  • Measurable result: customer lookup time reduced from 4 min to 30 sec (8× improvement); monthly catalog and weekly reminders fully automated.

mialquiler.app — Property Management SaaS

2025
befeproduct
  • Independently built a full-stack SaaS application (PostgreSQL/Supabase) to automate administrative management between landlords and tenants.
  • Validated with a real user (multi-property landlord) who confirmed willingness to pay and provided feature prioritization feedback.

University Machine Learning Competition

2024
aidata
  • 2nd place. Built an ML pipeline with CatBoost as the final model, including feature engineering, exploratory analysis, and hyperparameter tuning.

Facial Recognition with Raspberry Pi

2023
