Experience

Insurance & Health Industry

Quito, Ecuador & New York, USA

I have worked on several projects in the insurance sector, focusing on areas such as vehicle, maritime, and fire insurance.

As for the Health Industry, I have been in daily care projects for the Elderly through specialized care centers and their logistics. The best experience was working in different roles such as facilitator, coordinator and developer in multi-ethnic and distributed teams around the world (India, Philippines, Poland, USA, Ecuador).

Another great experience was working in the Dental Health Sector, participating in many projects to manage the operational and financial logistics involved in managing a multi-specialty Clinic.

Financial Industry

Quito, Ecuador

In the Fintech Industry I had the opportunity to be part of the team of one of the three largest Banks in Ecuador, in Software products related to Web Channel, which offered services to internal clients, external remittances and the sales force. The most important thing in this Industry has been to understand many concepts such as communication protocols, concepts of gateways in online payments, ATMs and much more.

Banking Industry

Quito, Ecuador

I have worked in the banking industry as a Solutions and Integration Architect, leading integration architectures aligned with standards such as BIAN and ISO 20022.

This work has had a significant operational impact by improving interoperability with other financial institutions and systems, including core banking platforms (CMS), remittance companies, and peripheral channels such as ATMs and POS devices.

I also collaborated with the team to create an AI initiative to generate IT structures that better support integration and both internal and external interoperability across business components.

Retail Industry

Quito, Ecuador

I have gained extensive experience in the Retail Industry, particularly in inventory software products, covering administration, auditing, and improving sales performance.

The biggest challenge and continuous learning has been to face integration issues of various Software products, from known as JDEdwars to customized in very robust platforms such as AS400 (which by the way are fastastic), using many strategies and architectural patterns.
