Staff Engineer & Engineering Leader based in Guatemala 🇬🇹
Currently Head of Engineering at Aloha, where I build and operate a multi-tenant SaaS PMS serving 400+ active hotels across LATAM, plus Aloha Pay — our payments product integrated into that distribution. I stay deeply hands-on: I write production code daily and own infrastructure end-to-end.
- 🏗️ Multi-tenant architecture at scale — async migrations across 400+ tenant DBs via AWS Step Functions
- 💸 Payments infrastructure — researching private clearing chamber models (Chile's Shinkansen) for LATAM
- 🤖 AI-augmented engineering — daily Claude Code user shipping features end-to-end in days
