Top SchoolAgustin Pazos is a Senior Backend Engineer from Uruguay with over 15 years building scalable, production-ready backend systems across FinTech, blockchain, and on-demand services. He brings deep expertise in Golang (8 years) and Java (6 years), having led architecture and implementation of high-throughput, event-driven platforms and microservices that process millions of updates. At xLabs he was a core contributor to Wormhole, shaping its public APIs and a P2P gossip-backed backend for cross-chain events, and he’s continued advancing backend systems at Draftea.
