I buildin the darkuntil itturns on

I am a developer based in Argentina. I’ve been writing software for fun for thirteen years, though for the last seven, I’ve taken a professional approach. Most of that recent time was spent at large companies where systems simply *have* to work: I worked at MercadoLibre building parts of the marketplace and MercadoPago, and at Grupo Sancor Seguros on workplace risk systems; today, I work at NaranjaX and HTS.

That instilled a habit in me that’s hard to shake: considering what happens when the system scales, when someone enters bad data, or when a service goes down. It’s the kind of diligence usually found only in companies with teams of twenty people.

Aside from that, I build things on my own. I love that moment when someone sees—for the first time—a task that used to take hours of manual work now happening automatically.
