Manuel Motta | Technical Lead & Software Engineer

About Me

I'm a Systems Engineer from Universidad Nacional de Colombia with over 12 years of professional experience in software development. My career has taken me from embedded systems and .NET desktop applications to enterprise BPM platforms and modern reactive microservices.

Currently, I serve as Technical Lead at Tyse SAS (Tecnología y Servicios Electorales), where I lead the architecture and development of electoral technology platforms. I design event-driven microservices with Spring Boot 3, WebFlux, and Kafka, and build AI-powered solutions using Claude API with RAG for intelligent document processing.

Previously, I spent nearly 7 years at Trycore SAS building BPM-based financial systems for major banks including BBVA (Colombia) and APAP (Dominican Republic), where I also led a SCRUM cell.
