About

Professional summary

I am a Systems Engineer with a postgraduate degree in Management and more than 27 years of experience leading cross-functional programs, IT/IS operations, and supply-chain/logistics initiatives.

I have built my career in complex industrial and corporate environments, coordinating stakeholders across Engineering, IT, Finance, HR, Operations, Logistics, and external vendors. I am comfortable working as a control-tower leader, aligning priorities, managing risks, and delivering results across multiple sites and business functions.

My background combines technology and operations. I have led industrial IT/IS management, enterprise systems, and software-related initiatives, including work with SAP, Baan, Jira, Agile, Scrum, and Kanban. I also bring deep logistics expertise from automotive manufacturing, export operations, warehousing, transport, and after-sales supply chains.

In recent years, I founded and led a B2B logistics software platform from zero to one, defining the product, coordinating development, and supporting legal, brand, and operational setup. This experience strengthened my ability to translate business needs into practical solutions and to work effectively with technical and non-technical partners.

I have managed multi-million-dollar budgets, large teams, subcontractors, and high-volume operations in Argentina and international contexts. My experience includes real estate and facilities leadership, fleet management, warehouse operations, export logistics, and industrial IT service delivery.

I am trilingual in Spanish, English, and French, with intermediate Portuguese, and I am open to remote opportunities with international companies. I bring a structured, collaborative, and execution-focused approach to program management, operations, and technology-enabled business transformation.
