## Who he is

He has built products, led teams between Bogotá and Manhattan, and stood a company up from the architecture down to the last line of code. Kumitapp taught him that building well is not enough: without distribution, there is no company. Today he uses both halves, engineering and sales, at the same time.

## Now

- **Stripe Community Bogotá** — Community Builder. He organizes Stripe's community in Bogotá: https://www.stripecommunity.com/home/clubs/bogota/overview
- **PayJoy** — Software Engineer. He works on the sales interface the sellers use, frontend and backend alike, and keeps the dashboards and SLO metrics that stakeholders and the board use to follow performance and uptime. Credit. Finance for the next billion.
- **Deonexo** — Founder. B2B relationships between brands. It is not a technology company: the app that organizes invitations and events is in service of the relationships. Here he sells, distributes, and speaks with confidence.

## Before

- **Zoe** — Senior full-stack developer and Engineering Manager. Unified Wealth Management Platform. He led a multidisciplinary team between Manhattan and Bogotá: transfers of hundreds of thousands of dollars a day into investment accounts. That's where he learned that "stable" is not an adjective; it is the requirement.
- **Kumitapp** — Founder. Sports-tech + martial arts. He did the architecture, the database, the design, and the patterns. The technical foundation held; the company did not. It failed on distribution.
