about-

Hola, I'm Phanor 👋

I'm a software engineer with over 25 years of experience building systems that people actually use. I specialize in Go, Node.js, typescript, and cloud-native architectures, and I've had the privilege of working with amazing teams at Disney, Truepill, Milwaukee Tool, Exomindset, and X-Team, just to mention a few—all while working remotely from my home in Mérida, Venezuela, a beautiful city nestled in the Andes mountains.

What drives me

I genuinely love building things that solve real problems. Whether it's optimizing a graph database with 9 million nodes, migrating a legacy API to Go, or building a healthcare platform that serves thousands of patients, I care about quality, reliability, and impact. I'm also passionate about mentoring—I believe the best teams are the ones where people support each other and grow together. I've led technical discussions, established best practices, and helped junior developers level up throughout my career.

Beyond the code

When I'm not coding, I enjoy speaking at conferences (I've spoken at events about Neo4j and JAMStack), contributing to open-source projects (I built Muxie, a TMUX session manager with 100+ GitHub stars), and finding ways to support the tech community here in Venezuela. I'm also a big believer in continuous learning—I'm always exploring new technologies and finding ways to improve my craft.
