About me

Software Engineer

I'm Benjamín, a Software Engineer based in Chile. I currently work at Microsoft. Before that, I worked at startups and security companies, which taught me how to maintain products long-term, apply best practices, and keep a clear view of the big picture.

Education

I studied Civil Engineering in Computer Science at Universidad del Bío-Bío. Beyond my day job, I'm passionate about using technology creatively — whether that's developing video games, making music, or creating content about software development.

I believe in building things that matter, writing clean code, and always learning something new. When I'm not coding, you'll find me experimenting with game engines, producing music, or sharing what I learn on YouTube and social media.

What I'm into

Game Development

I love creating interactive experiences. I've built games with Unity and C#, handling everything from code to art and music.

Music Production

I produce music as a creative outlet, using Logic Pro X and other tools to compose original tracks for my projects and beyond.

Content Creation

I share my knowledge and experiences through YouTube, TikTok, and other platforms — from dev tutorials to behind-the-scenes of my projects.

Open Source

I enjoy contributing to and building open source projects. I believe in sharing knowledge and building in public.
