Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolCarlos Andres Bolaños R.A. is a Chief Software Architect with over a decade of hands-on experience designing high-throughput, resilient distributed systems and payment platforms across Latin America and Africa. He specializes in Erlang/Elixir, C/C++, and POSIX systems, and has repeatedly architected mission-critical payment processors, e-wallets, and identity services that integrate mobile-money networks and financial institutions. His background includes scaling real-time bidding infrastructure at 500k requests/sec and building platforms that handle petabytes of data, reflecting deep expertise in performance engineering and systems-level optimization. Carlos pairs technical leadership with product-minded delivery—translating customer needs into robust microservices and observability tooling—and has a track record of creating internal libraries (circuit-breakers, back-pressure utilities) that improve reliability across teams. He holds advanced training in software architecture and telecommunications management and often blends low-level C systems work with functional Erlang/Elixir designs, an uncommon cross-domain fluency that speeds prototypes into production.
