Let’s build something.

Whether you’re a founder with an idea, a team that needs to ship faster, or a business ready to automate — I design, build and deliver the software end-to-end. One partner, from first sketch to production.

Mobile Apps

Native iOS (Swift / SwiftUI) and cross-platform (React Native) apps — from idea to App Store and Google Play. Plus rescue and modernization of stalled or legacy builds.

Websites & Web Apps

Fast, responsive landing pages, marketing sites and full-stack web apps with modern stacks — built for performance, accessibility and conversion.

AI Agents & Automation

LLM-powered agents, chatbots and workflow automation (Claude, OpenAI, Gemini) that cut manual work and plug straight into your existing tools.

End-to-End Delivery & DevOps

Architecture, CI/CD and release automation (Fastlane, GitHub Actions, cloud) plus observability — so what we build ships reliably and scales without surprises.

// how i work

  1. 01

    Discovery

    We talk through your idea, goals and constraints. I scope the work, flag the risks, and give you a clear plan, timeline and fixed quote — no surprises.

  2. 02

    Build

    I build in short, visible cycles with regular demos, so you always see progress and can steer. Clean, tested code and tight communication throughout.

  3. 03

    Ship

    Release to the App Store, web or your cloud — with CI/CD and monitoring set up so it runs reliably. Optional ongoing support once you’re live.

> engagements: fixed-scope projects, monthly retainers, or hourly consulting · remote, working across US & LATAM time zones

// experience

Trusted by teams for nine years.

  1. iOS Developer Senior · OMC

    2025 — Current

    Bogotá · Colombia

    In this project, I lead a team responsible for providing comprehensive front-end and back-end support for a SwiftUI application backed by cloud functions. We leverage critical observability tools including GCP Logs and New Relic to monitor system health and performance. My responsibilities include ensuring continuous service availability, proactively identifying potential failures, and implementing resilience improvements. The team maintains on-call rotations using PagerDuty to respond to incidents and maintain service reliability.

  2. iOS Developer Senior · Globant

    2024 — 2025

    Bogotá · Colombia

    Built bridges to integrate a Flutter application with native Swift code in an Xcode project, stepping beyond my usual responsibilities. Also contributed to the development of AI agents aimed at streamlining and automating daily workflows.

  3. iOS Developer · Rootstrap

    2021 — 2024

    Bogotá · Colombia

    Worked across several projects: led a project end-to-end with full freedom to implement the desired SwiftUI architecture, fixed outstanding bugs to finalize another, and joined a mid-sized team focused on bug fixes and migrating legacy screens to SwiftUI.

    Masterclass: brought the app up to required accessibility standards. Later joined the tvOS team and built the multi-user screen, letting each member of a family account have their own profile.
