Melvin Vivas

Software Engineer & Senior Technology Leader

25 years across banking, fintech, and enterprise.

I've been in the trenches: shipping GenAI apps, building open-source AI tools, and working hands-on with local LLMs and autonomous agents.

I mentor on coding with AI, boosting productivity with AI tools, and turning AI into real business growth. Whether you're a founder, engineer, or leader — you'll get someone who understands both the strategy and the build.

How I work

Every engagement starts with a conversation. I discuss your team's current capabilities, the problems you're trying to solve, and what success looks like for your organization.

From there, I design a workshop around your context — your industry, your workflows, your stack. Training covers areas like AI strategy, software development with AI, workflow automation, productivity tooling, and AI governance — scoped to what matters most to your team.

Sessions are hands-on. Your team builds with real tools and works through exercises based on their actual use cases — not generic demos. Everything is delivered online via Zoom, with materials provided and a follow-up Q&A included.

The result: your team walks away equipped to apply AI to their work immediately.
