Computer Engineer student at Costa Rica Institute of Technology, Hardware Hacker, Entrepreneur.
Born in an entrepreneurial family, raised to be the tech guy of the family business. So I took some courses on computer maintenance, then I got accepted on the Costa Rica Institute of Technology and discover my passion for prototyping projects when I started to participate on development competitions. Enjoy the most working on back end and optimization of the project's software/hardware. Right now working at Intel on both security of some products and CI/CD.

Lead the automation of CI/CD processes for some of Intel simulators and helped improve the performance of them by developing tools that enable the usage of the resources of an internal cluster in our solutions. Implemented containerized development environments for developing, building and deploying the libraries and binaries that are part of the aforementioned simulators.
Designed and developed tools to assure the security and quality of the simulators and web apps using industry standards for testing, code scanning and linting C/C++, Java, Python, Rust and Go code. Speed up the process of generating an input file for one of Intel’s simulators from hours/days to seconds/minutes by automating the process using industry standards for CI/CD.
