• Innovated, led, and generated the development of new products associated with electronic invoicing in Latin America (Chile, Peru, Colombia, Brazil, and Argentina), aiming to solve regulatory problems in several industries of each country, avoiding millions of dollars fines to my clients associated with non-compliance in term and manner indicated by each government.• Created and led B2B and B2C solutions for the largest retail companies in the region, such as Cencosud, Falabella, Walmart, CMPC, and Ferreyros, to facilitate the reception (inbound) and payment of invoices in Latin America. Those solutions were related to Customer Portals, Supplier Portals, and ERP Integrations such as SAP. All these implied reductions of up to 40% in time dedicated to servicing suppliers, reconciling invoices and payments, among other savings.

• Iconstruye needed a new electronic invoicing platform to excel the competition in a 14-month window. I oversaw the project and development team to perform this requirement using Scrum. Together, we successfully implemented more than 8 new invoicing associated products, which led to an increase in our clients by 30% in the last quarter of 2015.• Several clients needed a new product that would help them to approve or reject electronic invoices. I was given a development team and the responsibility for achieving this new product within 2 months. I led the design and development of a new business rule engine for electronic invoicing, allowing the automatization of approval or rejection over more than 200.000 electronic invoices per month.• Most projects were behind schedule due to the lack of project methodology in the company. Because of that, I made a project normalization proposal to the general manager and during a period of 6 months I helped project managers to have a better understanding of what was expected from them. This led to an increase in transparency of each project situation and a better visibility of the development team capacity. As a result of this, a PMO was introduced to the organization.

• In 2013, government regulations demanded that within the next 12 months, every telecommunication company in Chile had to release 4G (LTE) to customers. I was responsible to lead the implementation of the new data plans and design technical customer support for it. My team successfully met the release date, and within the first week we activated more than 10,000 clients. Nowadays, there are more than 8 million customers using those data plans.• Due to the new data plans, the company decided to release a new tv service, which will not reduce customer data when used. I managed this project creating new alliances with several tv media providers, encoding their tv signal into a digital broadcast. This project allowed the company to have a more competitive service catalog of value-added services (vas) than the competition. It was a strategic project.

• Effectively managed the implementation of a new loyalty program software, for all credit card purchases in Chile, creating a monthly income for Nexus of over $60,000 USD for each bank participating in the program.

These transactions will imply a 10% increase in all credit card purchases.

With the improvements I made on this site, it allowed the bank to overtake the competitions’ sites, making it a better user experience for its clients. The marketing department congratulated me on this job.• Design of an SMS sending process to clients, offering promotional loans and credit cards pre-approved. It has been estimated that this project represented a 1.5% increase of short term loans for the bank. The project was successful due to my design and the solution flexibility.• Design elements of the integration process for the new Customer Relationship Management software (CRM) bought by the bank, which allow a better handling of the client’s information and the possibility to perform data mining as well. My participation was key to completing this project on time.

• Creation of the functional requirement specification on time, for a new contactless system in an urban train service, joining the cities of Santiago and Rancagua. The difficulty of gathering basic information on this project in such a short period of time made its completion a significant achievement.

• A Master thesis was completed with the design of the new technical assistance platform for technicians installing new services.
