SOFTWARE ENGINEER · QUITO, ECUADOR

Thoughtful code.
A little ocean soul.

I'm Pablo, a software engineer building things that make a difference. Usually between a few lines of code and the next wave.

A curious mind.
A coastal state of mind.

I'm a software engineer from Quito, Ecuador, with a master's degree in Business Intelligence & Data Analytics. I enjoy turning complex problems into software that feels simple.

Outside the terminal, you'll find me travelling chasing waves, on the MMA or BJJ mats, or picking up my guitar. At home, my two cats, Nina & Sasha, keep a close eye on the keyboard.
