Technical PM | Automation & API Integration Specialist | Mech Engineer

I'm a Mechanical Engineer (MSc.) with over 10 years of experience in software development and process automation. Since 2018, I've been running Smartcode Builders, a small development team of 5 people focused on automation, web applications, and data solutions. Most of our work involves understanding a client's operational problem, designing a solution, and coordinating my team to deliver it. I handle the communication, the project planning, the quality review and the technical execution together with my team. It's a setup that has worked consistently well: 350+ completed projects and a 100% Job Success Score on Upwork since 2017. What we work on: - Business process automation (Python, VBA, Google Apps Script) - Web application development (React, Django, Node.js) - Data analysis, dashboards and reporting - Algorithm design and API integrations - QuickBooks Online integrations (data sync, Excel automation, REST API) Before starting Smartcode Builders, I spent 10 years as a Project Manager at Indesca, a Venezuelan industrial company, working on polymer processing, production optimization, and data-driven process improvement. That background gives me a practical understanding of industrial and engineering problems that most software developers don't have. I work best on projects with some complexity — where clear thinking, good communication, and reliable delivery matter more than just writing code fast. I enjoy both one-time projects and longer engagements where I can understand the full context of a client's business. If you have a problem that needs a structured solution and a team that delivers reliably — I'm happy to discuss it.
