Junín (Argentina). Gurgaon (India). Hollywood. ✈️
As Lead Backend Engineer at Grindr, I built teams across three continents. The codebase was challenging. The reviews were tough. The app still struggles with issues we fought daily.
But the engineers I hired in Junín, the late nights debugging with the team in Gurgaon, the friendships across 10,000 miles — that's what I took with me.
Sometimes it's not about the code you ship. It's about the people you build with.
