Senior🎓
Top SchoolGonzalo Méndez is an AI engineer and software architect with over a decade of hands-on experience designing and building scalable web applications since the early "webmaster" days of 2004. He specializes in software architecture, clean maintainable backend code (PHP/MySQL, Magento2), and complex integrations, having led Spain’s first fully online driving school and the country’s early Magento2 adoption. Pragmatic, curious and self-taught across many stacks, he now focuses on GenAI integrations—RAG, embeddings and prompt engineering—bringing practical production sensibilities to cutting-edge models. Comfortable moving between hands-on development and technical leadership, he combines deep backend craftsmanship with a strong appetite for continuous learning and technical challenges. Based in Madrid, he’s known as a skeptical, pragmatic problem-solver who thrives on turning ambitious ideas into robust, operational systems.
