About me 👋

🇺🇸 [EN] I'm Pablo Lizardo, a software developer with over 10 years of experience in frontend, backend, and fullstack projects. Throughout my career, I've worked at global companies like Globant, Aerolab, and TV Fuego, where I've led and developed robust, scalable, and user-oriented digital products.

My background combines graphic design and programming, allowing me to approach projects with a comprehensive perspective: from user experience to system architecture. I've worked with technologies such as JavaScript/TypeScript, React, Node.js, Prisma, and modern tools like Astro, Remix, Vite, Next.js, and Tailwind CSS, integrating REST and GraphQL APIs with relational and NoSQL databases, SSR, TanStack/ReactQuery, Zustand, and applied AI with LLMs and RAG.

I've collaborated with teams from Argentina, USA, Scotland, Ecuador, and Netherlands, both in corporate environments and freelance projects, and have given talks on development, open source software, and 3D at international events. I enjoy working in multidisciplinary teams, continuously learning, and building impactful products.

I'm interested in joining teams that value quality, innovation, and strategic thinking, where I can contribute from experience while continuing to grow technically and professionally.
