Elias Rodelo

I'm a staff engineer with 10+ years shipping production systems. Today I'm a senior software engineer on a US consumer-lending platform, working across loan origination, underwriting, fraud and identity verification. Before that I spent three years as the principal engineer of an IoT analytics SaaS platform on Azure, where I set the architecture and the engineering standards and stayed in the code every week.

I work spec-first. I write the spec, the technical design and the ADR before the code, and I review work against them. Agents are part of how I deliver: I build the skills, knowledge bases and guardrails that make them useful to a whole team, and I keep deterministic checks in charge of merges. The LLM advises; it doesn't decide.

I started in 2015 building e-commerce themes, moved through frontend work in React, Vue and React Native, and grew into backend, distributed systems and technical leadership: mentoring through code review, setting standards across in-house and partner teams, and owning incident response with postmortems.

Next, I'm looking for Staff, Lead or AI Engineer roles, remote, with US or LATAM teams.
