André Jesús Macías Rodríguez

Platform & Backend Engineer

I'm a software engineer with six years of experience building and shipping software on the cloud. Today, on Ford Motor Company's global Cloud Native Dev Enablement team, I build the internal developer portal end to end: Spring Boot APIs, an Angular and React frontend, and GCP infrastructure managed with Terraform. I integrated Lumen, the company's internal RAG service, into that portal, and before it I was Tech Lead of a knowledge management system with categorization and semantic search on Vertex AI. I come from an omnichannel startup, from cloud support on AWS in production, and from integrations in the Mexican payments system, where handling access, secrets, and sensitive data was never optional. I care about work that makes other engineering teams' day-to-day more consistent, more secure, and less manual.
