AI / Backend Engineer focused on building scalable systems using Python, containerized services, and modern AI architectures.
Based in Chillán, Chile 🇨🇱
I'm an engineer with a Master's degree in Industrial Engineering and hands-on experience designing and deploying real-world software systems that integrate backend services, data processing, and artificial intelligence.
Over the past few years, I have transitioned into AI and backend engineering, working on projects involving machine learning, computer vision, and generative AI systems deployed in production-like environments.
My work focuses on building reliable systems that combine software engineering, automation, and infrastructure to support data-driven decision-making and operational efficiency.
