Summary
Ignacio Soto is a software engineer with 8 years of experience building and operating backend services, REST APIs, and event-driven microservices across fintech, travel, and platform companies. He has led architecture and implementation efforts that reduced operational costs (>$43k annually) and accelerated delivery, including a custom Elasticsearch package and pipelines and a blockchain-to-OrientDB microservice exposing gRPC queries. Comfortable across the stack, Ignacio combines hands-on DevOps, database tuning, and frontend work—from enterprise React/TypeScript features to internal Chrome extensions—while mentoring colleagues and participating in on-call rotations. He’s practiced in designing Protobuf/gRPC contracts, reindexing strategies for large Elasticsearch clusters, and integrating diverse third-party APIs at scale. Based in Argentina, he pairs systematic engineering trade-offs with a pragmatic, problem-first mindset and pursues personal projects and glider piloting outside of work.
