Jose Stalin Andrade Cartuche

I am a data and AI architect with over eight years of experience designing and delivering data platforms, lakehouse architectures, and production AI systems across fintech, insurance, and e-commerce domains.

My work sits at the intersection of data engineering and applied AI. I have led teams building petabyte-scale lakehouses on Apache Iceberg, real-time fraud detection pipelines processing hundreds of thousands of events per second, and retrieval-augmented generation systems that ground LLM responses in proprietary knowledge bases — all with a sharp focus on reliability, cost efficiency, and maintainability.

I am pragmatic about technology choices: I reach for the right abstraction rather than the fashionable one, and I treat data infrastructure as a product with real users. Currently open to senior individual-contributor or staff-level architecture roles at companies where data is a genuine competitive advantage.
