Hey, I'm Daniel.

I'm a software engineer from Guadalajara, Mexico, currently based in the San Francisco Bay Area. For the past several years I've been building cloud-native infrastructure at MinIO — from the Kubernetes Operator and management Console, to enterprise storage architecture and one of the first large-scale RAG systems.

Before that, I led machine learning efforts at Espressive and worked in R&D at ServiceNow and Oracle. I hold 3 US patents and studied Computer Technologies Engineering at ITESM.

When I'm not writing code, you'll find me exploring tech history, shooting with my Leica, or talking tech with anyone who'll listen — which, honestly, is most of the time.
