About Me

With over 25 years in IT and a strong background leading large-scale infrastructure, cloud, and software delivery projects, I am confident in managing complex environments with hundreds of stakeholders. Experienced with Jira, governance, and delivery control, I thrive under pressure and ensure consistent, high-quality results across distributed teams. I have successfully managed the delivery of crypto trading bots using API integrations with major exchanges and incorporated machine learning and AI to optimize performance. My expertise extends to building Web3 tools for DeFi operations and leading NFT infrastructure development, aligning architecture and delivery with distributed teams.

I have integrated machine learning workflows and generative AI features to boost enterprise upsells and owned the vision and roadmap for high-availability APIs handling billions of file transactions. I have launched team management interfaces with role-based access and API governance to improve customer onboarding and partnered with engineering teams to optimize large file uploads and SDK upgrades.

My experience includes managing end-to-end delivery of talent acquisition platforms, launching cross-platform video interview solutions, and building marketing automation modules that significantly increased engagement. I have led encrypted instant messaging app development and instituted Agile ceremonies to improve delivery timelines. Additionally, I designed onboarding playbooks and mentorship loops to reduce developer ramp-up time.

I have delivered complex IT projects such as medical hardware integration, Windows 10 rollouts, multimedia content systems, ERP upgrades, and network infrastructure design for Salesforce. I have managed geolocation services, deployed flight simulators, and started new call center operations. My leadership extends to upgrading multimedia data centers and security systems.

Throughout my career, I have led large IT programs ensuring adherence to PMP and PMI frameworks, worked with global clients, and consistently reported project progress to senior management. I have mapped requirements, performed quality assurance, developed IT cost models, and built strong relationships with customers and teams. I am recognized for adding great value to clients and winning project awards.

I have deployed virtualization and consolidation projects, trained staff on new technologies, and managed IT operations and projects for large organizations. My achievements include cost reductions, infrastructure standardization, IP telephony system implementation, and launching e-learning platforms. I have planned disaster recovery and business continuity programs and automated processes using Microsoft SharePoint.

I am fluent in English, Spanish, and Portuguese, and hold a Bachelor of Science in IT Data Processing Technology. I am PMP certified and skilled in Agile methodologies, project management tools, and IT infrastructure design. I am passionate about delivering value through technology and leadership.
