Hi! I'm

Diego Salas

Full Stack Developer

Informatic Engineer from Lima, Peru. I am passionate about technology and I am always looking for new challenges.

About me

I’m a full-stack developer focused on building scalable, production-ready web applications, with a strong emphasis on clean architecture, performance, and maintainability.

I design and ship end-to-end solutions, from RESTful APIs and databases to cloud deployments, taking ownership from implementation to production.

I enjoy solving complex problems, improving existing systems, and working closely with cross-functional teams to deliver reliable, high-quality user experiences.
