About

Making things with intention, not by inertia.

Diego Lafuente

Hi! I'm Diego, a software developer from Spain. I come from a family of musicians, so I grew up surrounded by music and the cello arrived before almost everything else. I still play with orchestras and ensembles, and a lot of what I know about building things I learned at a music stand: that what sounds good at the concert is what was rehearsed for weeks beforehand, and that a mistake of yours is paid for by twenty other people.

I came to software later and it hooked me for the same reason: what happens underneath. I started building applications and soon wanted to know where the data filling those screens came from and what happened when it arrived wrong; that's how I ended up in data and AI. What drives me is the same on both sides: building things that hold up as they grow and that have a reason to exist.

Now I build data and AI systems: pipelines that move the information, models that interpret it, APIs that serve it and, at the end of the chain, dashboards where someone looks at a number and decides. Lately, increasingly in the cloud.

Thanks for stopping by! If you feel like talking about something, drop me a line.
