More about me

Hi, I'm Sergio Pichardo — a Nicaraguan-American Software Engineer based in Mississippi.

I pride myself on being reliable, resourceful, and resilient. I take my work seriously, but I also know the value of balance. I'm ambitious and driven, but I stay grounded, calm under pressure, and team-oriented — always putting collective goals ahead of personal wins.

Outside of work, I love reading non-fiction and diving into mental models. I'm a big fan of slow-burn sci-fi, fantasy, and action movies. You’ll often find me listening to Radiohead, Nirvana, or The Kooks, messing around on the guitar (still learning!), playing soccer, or going on long walks with my wife.

I'm thrilled to be part of the team at Last Call Media, where I build Generative AI solutions using Python, TypeScript, Amazon Bedrock, and a suite of AWS services.

Before this, I worked on Immigrant Buddies, a platform that connects immigrants with volunteers to help them adjust to life in the U.S. I focused on building backend services and cloud infrastructure using AWS serverless technologies.

I also contributed to Armada, an open-source project that helps computer science teachers simplify environment setup by provisioning cloud-based dev environments at scale. I worked with a remote team of four developers to build the infrastructure using Docker and AWS.
