Hey, I'm Cristian.

I'm a senior full-stack product engineer focused on frontend-heavy product systems, performance, and real-time collaboration. I care about product judgment, strong execution, and thoughtful UI engineering in the same conversation.

About

I like product work where the interface and the system have to agree.

I am a senior full-stack product engineer based in Buenos Aires, with more than 18 years of experience building frontend-heavy systems, real-time collaboration tools, and product surfaces where speed and interaction quality matter.

My background moves from early company-building work into product engineering at Riverside. That mix makes me comfortable moving between product constraints, UI details, backend contracts, rollout risk, and the operational work needed to ship.

The throughline is ownership. Understand how people actually use the product, keep the architecture as small as the problem allows, improve the experience, and leave the codebase in a state the next team can build on.

Skills
