Rather than telling you who I am, I'll show you what I've built.

• Tinybird (2018–) — real-time data infrastructure. Co-founder. Built the product, managed the FDE team, then ran it as CEO.
• CARTO (2012–2018) — founding engineer to CTO. Geospatial data infrastructure. Zero to $8M ARR.
• Agroguía (2006–2017) — founder. GPS guidance software for tractors. Bootstrapped, profitable, run by one person. $200k+/year.
