I am a Systems and Computer Engineer from the National University of Colombia (UNAL).

I have experience working as a Software Engineer at high-growth startups and large tech companies. I specialize in backend development, high-scalability systems, and optimization.

• Back-End Software Engineer at Instaleap: (Oct 2022 - Present)

  • I work at a high-growth startup with a small team but high impact.
  • I handle high-scalability systems that support millions of users, using very agile workflows.

• Back-End Software Engineer at IBM: (Jan 2022 - Sep 2022 · 9 mos)

  • Backend Software Engineer + Integration.
  • I worked on moving old APIs and Microservices to Node.js.
  • Database Optimization: I improved a database replication process, reducing the time from 12 hours to only 1 hour.

• Software Engineer Intern at IBM: (Jul 2021 - Dec 2021 · 6 mos)

  • Software Engineer Intern + Integration.

• Research: I published a paper about my open-source tool for automated testing.

"Quick Test CLI: A Cross‑Platform for Automated Testing in Competitive Programming" I wrote a paper about a tool I built to help programmers test their algorithms.

Here are the tools and languages I use most often:

• Quick Test CLI: A tool to run stress tests for competitive programming. It helps users check if their code is correct and fast.
• C++ Algorithm Snippets: A collection of advanced algorithms and data structures in C++. I also wrote a Python script to make them easy to use in VSCode and Vim.

• 2nd Place - Ironhacks Competition 2018: A hackathon organized by Purdue University. I built a web app using Node.js and Google Maps API to visualize 100,000 data points.
