Chronological Résumé
(2003-2004) Handpicked by an aerospatial and nuclear industry company, INVAP, for a Software Development Internship after a recommendation from the National University of Comahue. 15 years old.
(2004-2005) Developed small software projects and played lots of ping pong. Graduated high-school.
(2005-2006) Worked at a web and systems development startup, Oro Verde Digital, while studying Bioinformatics at the National University of Entre Rios. Was the recipient of three different scholarships. One of them created specifically for me.
(2006-2007) Intern at a bioimplantology research lab, where I fulfilled the webmaster and IT consultant role. Co-founded bioinformaticos.com.ar.
(2007-2008) Dropped out from University. Abandoned three scholarships. Left my partnerships to the other founders/business partners. Started writing a novel. I partnered again to fund a pioneering digital newspaper and a radio in Río Negro Province.
(2008-2009) Created Tione Velocidad Web, a one-man studio dedicated to web-design and RIA development. Finished writing the novel. Started freelance consulting.
(2009-2010) Discarded Tione, focused on developing a multi-platform 2D Game Engine, and further developing art-skills: painting, sculpting, fine art, etc.
(2010-2011) Developed dozens of game prototypes with the Game Engine. Continued consulting to fund for research and development.
(2011-2012) From the development of the game engine, a promising artificial intelligence spins-off. I decided to focus specifically on that and started researching and developing AI systems. Began exploring its potential for other niches.
(2012-2013) Continued developing my AI systems. Took an impasse and wrote another novel: Cuento para un dia de lluvia.
(2013-2014) Completely focused on AI software development.
(2014-2015) Developed Crypto-Shuffle, a crypto-currency trading application featuring automation and AI-Trading. Was Platform Manager/Algorithmic Trader for a Hong Kong Index Fund where I negotiated a sell option for my AI-stack in 180k USD.
(2015-2016) Cancelled the selling negotiations for my AI-stack, decided to go by myself and tie it to Crypto-Shuffle for personal trading. Freelanced for R/GA, Goldman Sachs, CoinTelegraph and a financial startup.
(2016-2017) Troubling year for Argentina's economy. First half spent developing meta-game search software and continuing AI research. Became Technical Director for a medical startup (i5body). Freelanced for a financial startup.
