Summary & Testimonials


Summary


Over 24 years of experience in high technology and product management and software development, specialising in digital transformation through software products in mission-critical and diverse environments, including B2B, B2C, and B2B2C, with proven leadership in product management, team building, software architecture, and product evangelism. 

I am passionate about driving innovation and simplifying complex scenarios to deliver results in dynamic markets.


The early ages

My influence in technology began back in high school. I was surrounded by data processing courses I embraced because of my passion for video games; I used them to learn how complex problems can be simplified with data and software products. I also wanted to become an Air Force pilot, but that gave way to advancing my tech skillset.


From Technical Education to High-Tech Industries 

Between high school and college, I launched a tech business in 1998 that enabled me to earn funding for my higher education. The experience resulted in a self-learned process to become a programmer, and I have continued working in the tech industry ever since.

I spent all my working years until now in high technology and product development. I am engaged in delivering results and passionate about innovation and how to develop new ways to revolutionise business and create new markets to transform people's lives and increase companies' impact on their operation field. Since 2000, I have worked directly with digital transformation through software products in a mission-critical environment for B2B, B2C and B2B2C.


Professional Journey

I am Experienced in product and people management, acting inside multi-disciplinary global teams and developing vertical product solutions mainly in the financial services, software development, insurance, education, healthcare, sports, smart cities and telecom industries.

I have strong experience in team building and management, product development, software architecture and product evangelism. I am motivated by entrepreneurship and challenges, ready for new learnings and able to simplify scenarios to deliver results in dynamic and challenging markets.

I am experienced in building products through collaboration, partnerships, cloud computing, Apps and Digital Strategies. Over the years developing products, I've worked with AI, Machine Learning, IoT, Data Analytics and Augmented Reality in most SaaS products since 2015, which allowed me to test and deploy cloud products supported by cutting-edge technology and most used Digital Approaches.


From Big-Techs and Niche Companies to Startups and Scaleups

I'm Passionate about technology; my life was transformed during my teens when I started programming computers. In the last 15 years, I've worked at Borland, Embarcadero, Microfocus, CA Technologies and Microsoft's innovation department. In recent years at Microsoft, before joining HiperStream Inc., I was responsible for investing and supporting product development and technology hubs for the market verticals mentioned before. I led industry initiatives I'm a big fan of, such as Education, Healthcare, Financial Services, Insurance, Agriculture, Sports and Smart Cities.

I've always been working to solve complex problems with simple-to-use solutions, much more than product users; I want to generate a community and promote the common good with delightful, relevant and high-added-value products. 


The Last Seven Years in a Nutshell 

Hiperstream, the last company I founded, is a global technology company born to support digital transformation in other companies. Through logical and automated data validation, technology for financial communication and relationship management, our B2B/B2B2C customers reduce risks and losses in their operations and offer a better customer financial journey experience.


As a head of product management, I manage three teams across Europe and the Americas, leading the core product and user experience. I also manage technical partners and offer software architecture guidance and validation to several technologies and platforms.


Additionally, my accountabilities include

 • Product Management

 • Digital Transformation Strategy

 • People Management

 • Product Improvement & Innovation

 • Technical Staff hiring across Europe & LATAM

 • Cap new Investors & Support in New Acquisitions 


For the last two years leading Product Integration and preparing Pexapark to scale as a business, I focused on getting all services and products to talk, creating a unique experience for Assets, Deals and Client onboarding, helping the company to grow more than 40% in Revenue, doubling the number of employees and closing a Series B and C of investment, more than U$30M.


Summing up
I am the catalyst who puts the right people together to solve complex problems with simple-to-use solutions. I focus on securing the best results from combining team talent and products. I am also a long-time advocate of promoting the common good with delightful, relevant, and high-added value results. I bring an entrepreneurial spirit, fostering creativity and building lasting relationships with teams and customers.


Aside from work, I enjoy my family and playing with my daughters, our three rescue Yorkshires, hiking, playing Paddle and Tennis, Snorkeling, MMA (As a former fighter, I have more than ten years of practising) and Formula 1.
