About

Hey there! I’m Iván, a Senior Software Engineer, Engineering Lead, and mentor with over 15 years of experience in the tech industry. I’ve worked across backend, frontend, DevOps, mobile, and UI/UX, but what excites me the most is helping others grow and navigate their careers.

💡 Why I Mentor

Throughout my career, I’ve been fortunate to have amazing mentors who guided and challenged me to become a better engineer and leader. Now, I’m paying it forward by helping others unlock their potential, whether they’re transitioning into tech, leveling up their skills, or stepping into leadership roles.

💭 How I Approach Mentorship

I believe that mentorship is a partnership, not just a one-way advice stream. My approach is structured yet flexible, tailored to each mentee’s unique goals, learning style, and challenges.

Expect:

✔ Personalized guidance to help you grow as an engineer or leader.
✔ Actionable feedback and real-world insights to accelerate your progress.
✔ Support through challenges—whether it’s breaking into tech, mastering a new stack, or tackling imposter syndrome.
✔ Accountability & motivation to push you towards your goals while keeping the journey enjoyable.

🚀 What Mentees Come to Me For

Mentees usually seek guidance in:

• Technical skills development – especially in Elixir, Phoenix, and Ruby.
• Career transitions – breaking into tech, job hunting strategies, and interview prep.
• Leadership growth – learning how to lead teams, manage conflicts, and scale engineering organizations.
• Building confidence & finding direction – navigating career doubts, imposter syndrome, and decision-making.

What mentees say

5 out of 5 stars

Working with Iván for almost a year was an incredible experience. When I first joined the mentorship, I was struggling with impostor syndrome, lack of confidence, and uncertainty about my next career steps. Over the months, Iván helped me grow not only as a developer, but also as a person. His guidance was instrumental in helping me prepare for and land a new job opportunity, but what made the biggest difference was the confidence I gained along the way. He always created a safe space to discuss challenges, doubts, career decisions, and technical topics without judgment. What I appreciate most about Iván is that he genuinely cares. He's not the kind of mentor who just answers questions and moves on. He listens, encourages, challenges you to improve, and celebrates your progress with you. If you're looking for someone who combines technical expertise with empathy and genuine support, I can't recommend him enough. I'm deeply grateful for everything he helped me achieve during this journey. Thank you for everything, Iván!
