Experience
Summary
Product Engineer with a graphic design background, combining 3+ years designing and shipping data-centric products with 7+ years building production-ready web applications. As a founding team member at Arbolitics, a German agrotech startup, I’ve owned end-to-end UI development — from concept to production implementation — and built an AI-assisted design system that cut design time roughly in half and reduced UI regressions by ~90%. My background spans startups and public-sector projects in Chile, working at the intersection of product, design, and engineering: prioritizing roadmaps with cross-functional teams, then shipping the interfaces myself.

Resume
2024 - Present
Product Engineer
Arbolitics
- Owned product definition for growers and financial institution users, collaborating with product leadership and agricultural specialists to prioritize solutions, then translating them into a roadmap executed by a 3-person engineering team.
- Built the product’s UI foundation from zero as a founding team member, owning every user-facing interface end-to-end — from initial design through production implementation.
- Evolved that foundation into the Arbolitics design system, using an AI-assisted, code-centric workflow to cut design time roughly in half, enable real-world validation via Mixpanel/Hotjar, reduce UI regressions by ~90%, and scale consistently across 18 views spanning the production web app and website; the system remains in active use.
- Automated routine implementation work across 8+ dashboards and filterable data grids, freeing capacity for higher-value design work on field onboarding — core to the customer experience — and the irrigation planner, one of Arbolitics’ key differentiators.
