Senior🎓
Top SchoolCarlos Sarmiento is a seasoned software engineer with 11 years of experience building and modernizing web applications across startups and tech giants like Meta and Instagram. He combines full-stack fluency—from Python and .NET backends, event-sourced architectures and message-driven systems to Angular/TypeScript frontends—with strong product and operational instincts. Carlos has led end-to-end rewrites and cloud migrations that improved business metrics in industries as diverse as real estate auctions, healthcare EMRs, and consumer goods. As a founder and former tech lead he pairs technical ownership with team building and cross-functional leadership, introducing CQRS, Event Sourcing and distributed event patterns to teams. Based in Houston, he holds a Computer Engineering degree and an MBA in Entrepreneurship, a blend that helps him translate technical choices into measurable business value. A not-obvious strength: he started shipping software at 13 and has repeatedly scaled small engineering efforts into production-grade, enterprise-ready systems.
