I'm Jorge. Senior Engineer at PayPal/Venmo, CEO of Capdesis, and instructor to 54,000+ developers on Udemy. I design full systems: native mobile in Kotlin and Swift, Flutter when speed wins, Go backends on AWS with Postgres, Redis and Tailscale, and the security layers that tie them together. I take tests seriously and use AI as a copilot, never a crutch.
I've spent the last 8 years going deeper than the screen. Mobile is my craft, Kotlin, Swift, Flutter, the architectures that make them scale, but I've also built Go microservices for 10k concurrent users, designed authentication flows for a 426M-user fintech, and sat in the CEO chair of my own consultancy.
What sets me apart is the full-stack perspective on architecture. I don't just consume APIs; I design them. I don't just ship features; I think about the HLD, the threat model, the feedback loop, the developer experience. I've taken UI/UX courses because I believe engineers who don't understand design ship worse products.
My next chapter is deliberate: AWS Solutions Architect Professional and advanced cybersecurity certifications. Architecture and security are where I want to spend the next decade, building platforms that are fast, secure, and a pleasure to work on.
Financial features for 426M+ users. Led Push Provisioning, Auth Users, biometric flows. "Exceeds Expectations" rating.
Since 2019. 51,000+ students across educational apps. Team of 4 to 6 devs building Flutter, Go, and web for clients across MX.
Mobile developer at iOS Development Lab, Facultad de Ingeniería, my alma mater.
Native Spanish, professional English. Daily standups, async docs, client calls, conference talks, in both.
