Summary

Technology leader with 15+ years and progressive leadership responsibility, currently Head of AI. I set technology strategy and AI systems architecture, lead distributed engineering teams, and translate business needs into what gets built at executive level, pushing back when the ask is wrong. I have real depth in LLM agents in production: I know what they break on (evals, guardrails, observability, data governance, human oversight). I am technical enough to be trusted but not to write the code: I read the architecture, challenge design decisions, and evaluate vendors on the merits. I work across cloud (Azure), APIs, integrations and data, and own monitoring, observability and documentation so nothing critical depends on one person. Business minded, I connect technical investment to revenue. I took a program from crisis to reliable delivery. Systems Engineer with an MBA. Native Spanish, professional English (C1).

Experience

Head of AI · Technology Strategy, AI Architecture & Engineering Direction · DigitalHubAssist LLC Oct 2024 · Present

Remote · US company, AI / SaaS platform (startup)

Set the technology strategy and AI systems architecture and direct the technical work without writing the code. Built Agent Squad, LLM agents in production that automate content and operational workflows, engineering it as a durable advantage rather than a demo: evals, guardrails, observability, data governance and human oversight for what agents break on. Run cloud (Azure), APIs, integrations, CI/CD and the operational discipline (observability, monitoring, documentation). Decide build vs buy and where AI is a genuine advantage vs a distraction. Under my leadership the company reached Registered Partner status in Anthropic's partner program.
