I'm Alejandro Sanabria, a Forward Deployed Engineer at Wonderful.ai. I build AI agents and integrations for real customer workflows.
My work connects customer needs, product decisions, implementation, and verification. A background in mobile platforms and full-stack products helps me carry those decisions into working software.

Selected Work
iOS Workflow Systems
workflow toolingReusable workflow patterns for iOS architecture, implementation planning, code review, validation, App Store operations, and screenshot generation. The workflows make architecture decisions, review, and verification explicit.
ios-architect-skillCifro
finance appA published private-by-design iOS finance app built with SwiftUI and Apple Foundation Models. Cifro uses on-device AI for transaction parsing, budget bucket suggestions, daily insights, and a review ritual — no Cifro account, no ads or third-party tracking, and optional sync through your private iCloud account.
Explore CifroRelease & Screenshot Automation
iOS automationCommand-line tooling that supports the mobile delivery workflow: App Store Connect metadata and build upload automation, plus deterministic iOS simulator screenshot capture for App Store assets, regression checks, and CI pipelines.
appstore-toolsscreenshots-iosPlatzi Mobile Platform
mobile platform leadership8+ year mobile chapter growing from one of Platzi's first mobile engineers into leading iOS and Android platform work. Helped move the platform from React Native to native Swift and Kotlin, scale shared standards, and build the team behind Apple-recognized Foundation Models and Liquid Glass work.
Brand Spa
co-founder · full-stack engineeringCo-founded and led the engineering side of a digital agency for nearly five years, serving as the principal engineer across client projects. Built custom web solutions from architecture to production using PHP, Laravel, Ruby on Rails, WordPress, React, and Node.js.
Baubap iOS First Version
short engineering management chapterA short engineering management chapter focused on getting Baubap's first iOS version moving quickly: aligning product, mobile architecture, delivery constraints, and team execution around a compressed timeline.
What I'm Building Now
I'm applying AI to the parts of engineering where context, review, and repetition usually slow teams down.
The work is practical: tools and workflows I use to plan, build, verify, package, and release real software.
FDE workWorking close to customer workflows, product needs, AI systems, and implementation
Architecture workflowsBreaking down ambiguous work into implementation plans and trade-offs
Review loopsUsing AI to preserve context, check assumptions, and verify output
Delivery toolingAutomating screenshots, App Store work, and release steps
Product systemsBuilding apps like Cifro where AI supports useful product behavior
The goal is not AI for its own sake. The goal is better engineering judgment, faster feedback, and working systems.
What I Believe
- Quality is a multiplier, not a tax. Investing in architecture pays back in velocity every sprint.
- Lead from the code, not above it. An EM who can't evaluate a technical trade-off is managing blind.
- AI becomes useful when it lands inside a workflow. The hard part is connecting model behavior to a real job, team, and outcome.
- AI should augment judgment, not replace it. The goal is better engineering, not just faster output.
