Summary
Gustavo Armagno is a senior software engineer and product-minded technologist based in Montevideo with 13 years of professional experience and over two decades of hands-on development across startups and embedded-hardware companies. He blends software engineering, product management and HCI expertise (MS in Human-Computer Interaction) to align technical architecture, UX and business goals—frequently building Electron/React desktop apps and multi-language SDKs that bridge hardware and software. As a technical lead he has defined architectures, instituted CI/test automation, reviewed PRs as learning opportunities, and coached teams for sustained delivery. He’s equally comfortable shipping low-level C++/Python integrations for USB host adapters and shaping product strategy for nearshore clients, a combination that helps projects move from concept to fielded hardware. An unexpected thread through his career is a long-running focus on accessibility and alternative interaction modalities from his academic HCI work, which informs the practical solutions he engineers today.
