I have developed a career of over 30 years in software engineering, principally in design and data management in development functions and project management, mainly developing web applications and designing websites for companies in different areas, including the construction of educational platforms. More than ten years ago, I reoriented my career towards the health area and worked in various institutions on issues of structuring and analysis of complex health data in several research laboratories in the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Chile. I have worked as a project coordinator and Product Owner of software under agile environments using tools such as JIRA, Confluence and others for agile software project management. Business process modelling in BPMN tools and data process automation with KNIME and other software.

I am open to contributing and the same time learning from new challenges.
