As an independent Solutions Architect some of my current engagements have been geared towards Cross-Platform (mobile) development, providing consulting on project planning, architecture, development, deployment, monetization and guidance on intellectual property protection. Additionally, my activities include creating POCs and reference architectures on platforms such as AWS to reduce maintenance and accelerate development cycles.Leveraging my wide array of technical skills, as well as my passion for research and development, allows me to provide with insight tailored to the needs of those who seek my counsel by taking in account their level of expertise and proficiency in different technologies.My favorite approach is to empower those who seek my advice by providing them with knowledge - or training - that helps them do more for themselves or aids them to have more fulfilling engagements with me or other entities.Currently these are a few of the technologies under my evaluation or with POCs in progress:• Angular (Classic AngularJS and Angular with Typescript)• AWS• Go• Ionic Framework• Node.js• Postgresql• Solidity (Ethereum)

During my occasional spare time my efforts are dedicated to work on writing a science fiction series which sparked in my mind on April of 2009. Unlike some of the masters of science fiction in the past such as Jules Verne and Isaac Asimov, the future is catching up quickly to some of my envisioned concepts, turning this into an interesting challenge.

As a senior consultant my primary focus was to provide consulting services to strategic clients, such as Lyondellbasell. During those engagements my efforts were dedicated to aid our clients to manage successful environments and projects by both matching talent with opportunities and promoting guidelines, patterns & practices.During my tenure leadership and mentoring were among my key activities to ensure success in various projects, but that never precluded me from getting into the fray and provide more direct help to the teams by enacting various activites during the SDLC, from business requirements all the way to support.While my principal role has been of an Architect, the needs of our clients would demand me to take on additional roles such as Platform Lead and Developer Lead (sometimes acting as a Project Lead, as well), leading technical efforts on different fronts, interacting with on-shore and off-shore teams both consisting of business people and technical people.
