Juan Cruz Lima
+5 yrs expFull Stack Developer | Backend Specialist & Lecturer
I am a Higher Technician in Programming and Systems Analysis, developing software professionally since 2020. I love digging deep into domain challenges, designing clean architectures, and delivering solutions that yield measurable value—from data persistence to frontend interactions.
Currently, I work as a Full Stack Developer at Onetree (Pathful) leading administrative microservices and microfrontends within an AI-first workflow, while also serving as Adjunct Lecturer at Instituto Roque González, teaching Programming I, Web Development, and Mobile.
I place heavy emphasis on engineering fundamentals: algorithms, data structures, ACID transactions, decoupling, and automated testing. My workflow embraces Spec-Driven Development (SDD) with AI tools to accelerate delivery without sacrificing code quality.

2022Beyond the Code
Posadas native, passionate about software craftsmanship, teaching, and family. Life behind the keyboard.
About Me & Roots
I'm 32 years old, born and living in Posadas, Misiones (Argentina) 🇦🇷. My curiosity for technology sparked early: spending hours exploring computers, gaming, and wanting to understand how things work under the hood until I started building my own projects.
Family & Life Partner
I've been living with Mily (32 years old) for 4 years, my partner of 13 years (together since October 2012 ❤️). We share daily life creating projects and cheering each other on through every new challenge.
Our Poodles
Our home is made complete with our two poodles: Milo (7 years old, the chocolate one) and his son León (5 years old), who bring endless joy and are the real owners of the house.
Free Time & Passions
In my spare time, I love cooking, playing video games, watching anime, spending quality time with family and pets, and of course, always with a mate by my side 🧉.
Teaching as a Calling
Teaching at Instituto Roque González allows me to pass on solid engineering fundamentals and watch future engineers grow. My philosophy is simple: understand the core problem and logic before touching a keyboard.
