Hello Devs!

Hey, Devs!

I'm exfoca, a software engineer and the founder of Orion Impact. I believe technology should make us more capable — not more dependent.

My technical journey has taken me to the frontiers of applied AI and data infrastructure, always looking to build bridges between AI, systems, and humanity.

Outside of work, I created a playful artificial life project called primordial-soup , where tiny neural creatures evolve on their own. If anyone wants to take a look, consider this an invitation! 🐍

I hope to contribute to the community and learn a lot here. I'm looking forward to reading your articles and exchanging knowledge.

Cheers!
