Technical depth meets business understanding

Most technical problems in business are not purely technical. They sit at the intersection of architecture decisions, operational constraints and real user needs.

Santiago combines deep backend and systems experience with a practical understanding of how businesses actually operate. He has built, maintained and improved real business systems — not only written code, but shipped products and solved operational problems that matter.

The result is software that is reliable, maintainable and aligned with how your teams work.

// cases

Technical Cases

Selected examples of technical problems solved in real business contexts.

eCommerce

Large eCommerce Catalog Search Optimization

A growing eCommerce platform was struggling with search performance and relevance as the product catalog grew into hundreds of thousands of SKUs.

Problem
Slow search response times, poor relevance scoring and a heavy indexing process that caused delays and inconsistencies in product data.
Solution
Redesigned Elasticsearch mappings, normalized product data, rebuilt the indexing flow with incremental updates and improved field weighting.
Result
Significantly faster search, more accurate relevance and a more maintainable indexing pipeline that reduced operational overhead.
Retail / B2B Commerce

ERP and eCommerce Integration

A B2B retailer operated their ERP and online store as disconnected systems, relying on manual exports and imports to keep data aligned.

Problem
Stock levels, pricing and product data were frequently out of sync, causing order errors and requiring constant manual intervention.
Solution
Built a robust API integration layer with batch synchronization, error handling, retry logic and operational monitoring.
Result
Reliable, near-real-time data synchronization between systems, fewer manual errors and a measurable reduction in operational overhead.
Operations / ERP

Odoo Customization for Real Business Workflows

A mid-sized company had implemented Odoo but found that standard workflows did not reflect how their teams actually operated.

Problem
The gap between standard Odoo flows and actual business processes led to workarounds, inconsistent data and low user adoption.
Solution
Developed custom modules, adapted existing workflows, added automation rules and integrated Odoo with external tools their team already used.
Result
A closer fit between the software and the business process, higher adoption and more reliable data across operations.

Own products

Building products, not just delivering projects

Alongside client work, Santiago builds his own products. This includes AI-focused projects such as Kelvia.ai, which keeps him close to real product decisions, automation challenges and the practical constraints of building and shipping software.

The experience of being a technical founder informs how he approaches client work — with a product mindset, attention to maintainability and a focus on what actually delivers value.
