Summary
Jason Martínez is a computer scientist and data journalist with 11 years of experience building civic tech and data-driven investigative tools. As Co-Founder and Special Investigations Project Manager at Salud con Lupa, he leads cross-border projects that blend software engineering, data analysis, and investigative reporting to expose wrongdoing in public health and corporate influence. His work has catalyzed policy change across Latin America—most notably Vacunagate—and earned recognition such as second place in the 2024 Javier Valdez Award and nominations for the Gabo and Sigma Awards. Equally at home coding news apps and visualizations as he is coordinating multinational reporting teams, he also trains journalists in digital methods through organizations like ICFJ. He combines rigorous evidence-based inquiry with product-minded engineering, often building bespoke tools that turn messy datasets into high-impact stories.
