Argentine 🇦🇷 living in Valencia, Spain 🇪🇸 — coding from home with good mate 🧉 and better sunshine ☀️
I'm a Senior Software Engineer with 10+ years building things that (hopefully) don't break in production, now expanding into AI Engineering. I've shipped code across FinTech, crypto, banking, government, and health-tech — from payday loan platforms to Bitcoin banks, from government treasury systems to medical apps.
- 🏠 Born and raised in La Plata, Argentina — home of UNLP, great football, and mate culture
- 🌍 Now based in Valencia, Spain, fully remote and loving it
- 🏦 Most recent work experience in @ Xapo Bank — building payment integrations and keeping crypto flowing safely
- 🤖 Actively transitioning into AI Engineering — Claude Code, GitHub Copilot & friends are part of my daily workflow, and I'm going deeper through hands-on coursework and project work
- 🎓 Hold an M.Sc. in Computer Vision and a B.Sc. in Computer Science, both from UNLP
