I'm Ignacio Miguez from Tandil, Buenos Aires, Argentina. I'm open to relocating and hold EU and Argentinian citizenship. I build robust backend systems and love turning complex problems into clean, scalable software. Most recently I led backend development for a credit MVP, engineered fraud-resilient money movement flows, built a backend proxy over an OpenAI agent with real-time streaming, and prototyped a real-time AI avatar. I enjoy learning new tech and delivering practical solutions that reduce latency and improve data integrity.
