Josué Gutiérrez

Josué Gutiérrez

Soy Josué Ángel Gutiérrez Cuéllar, estudiante de Ingeniería de Software en la Universidad Tecnológica del Perú y un convencido de que la tecnología debe tener propósito. Desde niño, siempre tuve la curiosidad de entender cómo funcionaba la tecnología. Aprendí a programar de manera autodidacta a los 9 años usando Game Maker Studio, un entorno que emplea una versión modificada de C y un paradigma orientado a objetos. Sin saberlo, comencé a programar de una manera no tan sencilla, sin cursos formales, pero impulsado por tutoriales y desafíos personales. Así nació mi mentalidad: “tal vez no lo sé todo, pero haré todo lo que pueda con lo que sé”.

Aunque Game Maker estaba pensado para videojuegos, yo lo utilizaba para crear herramientas funcionales que me sirvieran en mi día a día, como un "Word" simplificado para hacer mis mapas conceptuales en el colegio o un horario con enlaces directos a mis clases de Zoom en pandemia. Desde entonces, nunca me alejé de la programación. Aprendí HTML, CSS y JavaScript en mis tiempos libres, y luego Python. En segundo año de secundaria decidí que quería estudiar Ingeniería de Software.

Ingresé a la universidad con 16 años y ese mismo año obtuve una beca en EdX para llevar de manera remota el curso CS50x de la Universidad de Harvard, el cual culminé con nota perfecta. Como proyecto final desarrollé Sleep Watch Alert, una plataforma con inteligencia artificial que detecta si un bebé está dormido o despierto y envía alertas a un smartwatch. Esta idea nació por una necesidad familiar: ayudar a cuidar a mi sobrina recién nacida. Con el tiempo, el proyecto fue mejorado y me permitió ganar un hackathon en la Universidad de Concordia en Montreal, Canadá.

Más adelante, me convertí en voluntario en RobBuild, enseñando programación a niños, y gracias a una asociación tuve la oportunidad de enseñar de manera activa durante medio año en la Municipalidad de Lima. Gracias al impacto de estas sesiones, fui invitado a ser el primero en grabar una clase modelo para una plataforma educativa gratuita dirigida a niños de bajos recursos para que obtengan certificados en tecnología.

También lideré un equipo finalista en la Datatón del Ministerio de Trabajo, donde diseñamos una mano robótica para personas con parálisis que permite controlar una computadora, y desarrollamos una plataforma inclusiva de búsqueda de empleo conectada al portal del Ministerio. En este evento, tuve la oportunidad de dialogar y aprender con ingenieros de Google, Huawei y un representante de la Unión Europea especializado en economía.

Después, gané el primer lugar en el hackathon internacional CodePi, con sede en Francia, desarrollando un videojuego educativo para niños. El jurado estuvo compuesto por profesionales de empresas como Google, Apple, Amazon, Meta, Microsoft y Disney Streaming.

Actualmente tengo 19 años y recientemente, fui seleccionado entre más de 10 mil postulantes para ser representante activo en el Capítulo Nacional de la Juventud, impulsado por el Foro Mundial de Alimentación y la FAO - ONU, donde ya he presentado una propuesta disruptiva ante entidades gubernamentales internacionales, representantes de la FAO - ONU y SENAJU sobre un nuevo paradigma para el futuro de la agricultura en el país, llevando la tecnología y la inteligencia artificial al servicio de los agricultores rurales con ayuda de plataformas del Estado, entre otras cosas.

Gracias a todos estos logros es que he sido reconocido en más de una ocasión por mi universidad como un orgullo, y han destacado mis logros en LinkedIn. Realmente estoy muy agradecido por cada paso y lo que significa para mí y para la juventud en el Perú.

Cada parte de mi camino ha estado guiada por un propósito: usar la tecnología para mejorar vidas. Mi enfoque es claro: innovación responsable, inteligencia artificial con ética y desarrollo con sentido humano. Creo en el potencial humano y creo en un mañana mejor.
