Esteban Vargas is an engineering manager and ex-founder with 11 years of software experience, currently leading engineering at Masabi and previously scaling product and teams across telecom, cybersecurity, developer tools and logistics. He combines hands-on engineering—architecture, code review and data-driven debugging—with strategic roadmap delivery, balancing new features, technical debt and reliability. Esteban has a track record of launching revenue-driving products from zero, doubling ARR through enterprise features, and improving delivery velocity and rendering performance in production systems. He’s led teams from 3 to 9 engineers, driven ISO 27001 efforts for regulated clients, and modernized legacy stacks into Next.js and cloud-native architectures. As a founder he built developer-focused tools (a VS Code extension with 16K+ installs and a GitHub app used by 400+ orgs) that demonstrate his product-first approach to developer experience. Based in Medellín and trained in business administration, he blends entrepreneurial instinct with engineering discipline to deliver measurable outcomes.
