01 · Problem

Chilean users lacked a clear channel to regularize debts and financial institutions were losing significant collections. Sensitive data (PII) + LATAM financial compliance.

02 · Process

As Frontend Architect I orchestrated Django microservices with Vue/Nuxt frontend: eligibility → offer → payment. PII handling with encryption in transit and at rest. Bureau integrations + KYC verification.

03 · Result

Measurable improvement in collection operational efficiency and end-user experience. Platform still in production serving the Chilean market (detailed metrics under NDA).

02 · Process

Tiered-credit product + embedded scoring + low-friction approval flow. Vue/Nuxt frontend + Django microservices + Mexican credit bureau integrations. Documented architecture decisions for successors.

03 · Result

Key contribution to Destacame LATAM fintech portfolio in the Mexican market. Pattern reuse from the Chilean product with local regulatory adaptation (metrics under NDA).
