Summary

Engineering and delivery leader with 15+ years in tech consulting, now building AI systems in production. I own delivery across multiple concurrent client engagements (timelines, quality, dependencies, risk), manage and grow engineering teams, and set the quality bar. I stay hands on with the hardest AI builds: agentic systems, RAG, multi step pipelines and LLM API integration, on production cloud. Deep on the modern AI stack (prompt and context engineering, evaluation, embeddings, vector search, agent orchestration). I translate ambiguous client requirements into delivery plans and communicate as fluently with clients as with engineers. Systems Engineer with an MBA, based in Colombia. AI first: I use these tools daily and build that into my team.
