Diego Escobar

Software Developer with 10+ years of experience

About me

Hey, I'm Diego Escobar—a full-stack engineer with over 10 years of diving headfirst into code, DevOps, and SRE. I didn't take the traditional path; back in 2015, I ditched the classroom for real-world coding, teaching myself everything from TypeScript and Node.js to Kubernetes and Solidity.

It's been a wild ride: From building a warehouse control system that slashed inventory costs by $450K (yeah, that felt amazing), to scaling apps for MakerDAO in the Blockchain space, and now working with teams at a cutting-edge iGaming company in Estonia, where I helped orchestrate a massive launch across 15 US states and more than 45 different environments, boosting efficiency and productivity for our 400+ engineers team during a 160% growth spurt.

What fires me up? Solving tough problems with real impact.

Fluent in Spanish (native), English, and French, I'm all about innovation and adaptability. Let's chat about how I can bring that energy to your next big thing, drop me a line!
