Rafael Franco
Full-Stack Engineer, AI Engineer & Creative Problem Solver
I'm a passionate software developer with 7+ years of experience building high-impact digital products. I combine creativity, analytical thinking, and technical depth to create solutions that add real value. Since I was a kid, I've been naturally inclined to connect ideas that seem unrelated — and that ability has become my superpower as an engineer.
Experience

Accenture (BP – British Petroleum)

My journey began in the corporate world at Accenture, where I worked as an analyst for BP's oil and gas operations. I quickly became the go-to person for data automation, mastering SAP, Excel, Power BI, Tableau, SQL, and RPA to transform manual processes into efficient automated systems. I was instrumental in the BHP to BP acquisition process, saving significant time and money through intelligent automation. This is where I learned that the best engineers don't just write code—they solve real business problems that matter.

Accenture (MercadoLibre – LATAM's largest fintech)

Moving to MercadoLibre, Latin America's e-commerce giant, I dove deep into the world of massive data lakes and complex business intelligence. I built sophisticated SQL queries and procedures that processed millions of transactions, creating dashboards that gave executives the insights they needed to make multi-million dollar decisions. My automation work streamlined entire business processes, proving that the right technical solution can transform a company's efficiency and bottom line.

Freelance Full-Stack Engineer (Worldwide Clients)

I made the bold decision to transition fully into software development, and it paid off. Over four years, I built mobile apps and web platforms for international clients including Wigou, CloudX, Swift Medical, and Reservado. I mastered the complete tech stack—Flutter for beautiful mobile experiences, NestJS for robust backends, Firebase for real-time features, and became expert in CI/CD, deployments, and app store publishing. I proved I could handle every aspect of product development from design to deployment, shipping production-ready applications that delighted users and clients alike.

BNKA (Fintech & Crypto Wallet Development)

At BNKA, I entered the cutting-edge world of blockchain and cryptocurrency. I architected and developed blockchain microservices and contributed to building a sophisticated multi-crypto wallet supporting USDT, Bitcoin, Solana, and more. Working with decentralized systems and handling financial transactions taught me the critical importance of security, precision, and reliability in fintech applications where every line of code has real monetary consequences.
