18 years
leading technology projects
Project Manager · Scrum Master · AI · Colombia
Technology is only worth it when it makes someone's life easier.
For the patient who waits less, the business that leaves its paper notebook behind, the team that believes in its work again. And I believe great software shouldn't be a privilege of large companies: every business that works hard deserves it.

The problem
With AI, there's no excuse not to deliver value.
Projects that take too long to deliver value
- The client's real need isn't well understood.
- Disengaged teams whose why doesn't align with the project's.
- Rigid cultures that stifle teams and sacrifice quality.
Great software seems reserved for the big players
- Building an app feels expensive and out of reach.
- Operations live in notebooks and loose spreadsheets.
- There's no tech team to solve it.
How I work
Six things I do differently.
Understand first, build second
I dig into the business's real need before proposing a solution.
What you hand me gets done
I'm a doer: when something needs solving, I research it, move it forward, and close it, even when no one knows how at first. That's why the leaders I work with trust that whatever they hand me gets done.
I lead people, not just tasks
I align each person's why with the project's, so teams deliver with real commitment.
Practical agility, no rigidity
The method serves the outcome, not the other way around.
AI to deliver faster and at lower cost
That puts quality software within reach of small businesses.
AI speed, engineering rigor
18 years in professional software development mean that what I build with AI ships with quality, security, and the ability to grow with the business.
Services
Four ways to work together, all powered by AI.
Project Management
Who it's for: Companies with technology projects that need to land on time, on budget, and with real value.
What you get: A project with clear scope, risks under control, and every stakeholder aligned from start to finish.
AI Project Management
Who it's for: Organizations that want to take AI from idea to something their people actually use.
What you get: AI projects with a clear business purpose, short delivery cycles, and a team that uses AI to report, forecast, and decide better.
Scrum Master
Who it's for: Agile teams, including at scale with SAFe, that need more predictability and fewer blockers.
What you get: Aligned teams, predictable delivery, and a way of working that improves every cycle.
App Development and Implementation
Who it's for: Small and mid-sized businesses without a tech team that want to bring order to their operations.
What you get: A custom app, ready in weeks, not months, with the quality and security of a large company.
Not sure which one you need? Tell me the problem and I'll point you in the right direction.

Built with AI. Engineered like real software.
Today anyone can put together an app with AI over a weekend. Many look great on day one and break when real users, sensitive data, or growth show up. I use the same speed, with 18 years of software engineering behind it.
Quality
Every change is reviewed and tested before it reaches you.
Security
Protected access, encrypted personal data, and compliance with Colombia's data protection law (Ley 1581).
Scalable
A foundation built to grow with your business, not to be rebuilt the first time your customer base grows.
No surprises
Nothing is tested with your real data: everything goes through a test environment first.

About me
Hi, I'm Jairo.
At Baxter International, I built clinical data systems. That's where I lived the moment that shaped me most: we launched a clinical records system for kidney patients about to start dialysis, and I watched doctors see patients faster while patients spent less time at each visit. I learned that technology is only worth it when it makes someone's life easier.
Since then, I've led projects across industries, from manufacturing, retail, and payments to media, with teams and clients in North America and Europe. Today, with AI, I can bring that same quality to small businesses that couldn't afford it before. Marco Polo, a lodging business in Yumbo that swapped its paper notebook for an app, is the proof: a business of hardworking people who deserved the best. And when something needs solving, I'm the one people call: when someone on my team doesn't know how to get what they need, I figure it out and get it done the same day.

FAQ
Clear answers before we talk.
How much does it cost to work with you?
It depends on the problem you want to solve. Before we talk price, I take the time to understand your business, how it works, and what would truly create value for you. Then I send you a clear proposal after our first conversation.
How long does an app or a project take?
I work in fast versions: the essentials first, in your hands as soon as possible, then we keep improving. The first version of Marco Polo was ready in 6 weeks, and with AI that time keeps getting shorter.
Do you work with international teams and in English?
Yes. I'm bilingual (C1 English) and have led projects and teams for clients in North America and Europe.
Who owns the app when we're done?
It depends on what we build. A website or a simple app is handed over to you in full. For a larger system, you choose: I hand over the app so you can run it on your own infrastructure, or you use it as a subscription service, with no servers or maintenance to worry about.
What if my idea isn't worth building?
I'll tell you in our first or second conversation. Honesty comes first: I'd rather tell you no than build something that won't serve you.
What tools do you use?
To manage: Scrum, Kanban, SAFe, and Jira. To build: v0 and Claude Code, with quality and security standards. To automate: n8n and AI models such as Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini.
