He combines hands-on engineering chops—from front-end development to platform stewardship—with an MBA focused on statistics, organizational theory, and coaching, which he applies to hiring, mentoring, and building healthy engineering cultures. Miguel is practiced at balancing product feature velocity with technical debt reduction, running cross-functional planning, and mediating interpersonal challenges to keep teams productive.
