Mira is a Staff Security/Software Engineer at a unicorn-stage SaaS company running on Microsoft Azure in a multi-cloud environment. As one of the ten architects responsible for both software and security architecture, he shapes the trajectory of a platform built on .NET - from the monolith that carries the business to the emerging microservices that will define its future, while being actively engaged in both business and technical guidance during M&A events.

By day, I navigate the tension between shipping fast and shipping safe across a product surface that now includes LLM-powered features. By night (and early morning, and weekends), I build games, convenience apps, and small tools using every conventional and unconventional AI coding assistant I can get his hands on (I used to do small scoped projects prior to the AI era as well) and I have the experience as both a hobby and a long-running field study in what these tools actually produce.

I speak from the intersection of architecture, security, culture, and hands-on making. I have some production scars, real side-project joy, and very few slides with stock photos.

Jonathan Kahn is a communication coach who trains developers to use soft skills to gain influence and ship products faster. A former web developer, he’s coached technical experts of all stripes--from engineers to designers, financial analysts to surgeons, energy researchers to UN peacekeepers. He’s also trained the UK's leading digital teams in communication skills, from Deliveroo to the Government Digital Service.

Jonathan believes that anyone can develop soft skills--but they aren't covered in technical training programmes. These skills are vital for managing ambiguity, making judgement calls, negotiation, understanding business needs, public speaking and more. With the rise of AI, communication skills are even more important, as you need to explain the risks and benefits to business stakeholders who haven't grasped the details.

Over the last decade Jonathan has trained hundreds of engineers--and now he shares best practices, learning frameworks, and useful tips in talks and workshops.

En sus inicios lideró la guerra de las colas de los 90, reposicionando en el liderazgo a la hasta entonces desaparecida Pepsi. Este logro fue resultado de aplicar creatividad y esfuerzos comerciales que revolucionaron las técnicas de promoción y venta en nuestro país.

Luego impulsó los cambios en Bieckert, tomando más de 20 puntos de participación del líder del mercado. En esta ocasión la segmentación y los cambios en la distribución fueron las claves para lograr el éxito.

Cerrando el ciclo de bebidas recaló en IVESS dónde la necesidad era “un cambio total”, pasar de una cultura de reparto y monoproducto a una de venta profesional multiproducto, logrando vencer las barreras del cambio que colocan las personas cuando están en un negocio rentable con una marca líder.

El siguiente paso fue desarrollar planes comerciales innovadores en Arcor directamente desde el área de RRHH comercial, la función era desarrollar la máxima potencialidad a través de planes de seguimiento que involucraban la capacitación y mejora continua...

El punto en común de esta primera etapa era enseñar a las compañías de consumo masivo a brindar servicio y potenciar los procesos de calidad. En la segunda la misión fue despertar a las empresas de servicios hacia la necesidad del consumo masivo, adaptación al cambio y creatividad.

Así fueron Hartford Life, Liberty, BNL, Lloyds Bank, Banco Galicia, AFJP Prorenta y Citibank, los primeros beneficiados a través de los servicios de consultoría y capacitación.

Han pasado más de veinte años y con servicios de excelencia acompañó importantes emprendimientos de capacitación a empresas como: Sancor Seguros, Neoris, Automóvil Club, AGFA, Telecom, Calsa, AUDI, Carrefour, VW, Philis Morris, DHL, YPF, Exxon Mobil, Du Pont Pionner, John Deere, Manpower, Fibertel, Toyota, Peugeot, Novartis, Unilever, Accenture, ACARA, Energía San Juan, Shell, San Cristóbal y muchas más.
