As a contracts and claims manager, this expands my ability to evaluate suppliers not only from a risk and compliance perspective but also through a strategic, cost-efficient, and partnership-driven lens. Looking forward to applying these insights to strengthen global sourcing strategies and cross-functional collaboration. Just finished the course “Strategic Sourcing of Suppliers” by CRFT Productions and Martin John! Check it out: https://lnkd.in/eR5UD9Uv #suppliersourcing #strategicsourcing #businessstrategy.

It’s a privilege to work with talented students as they navigate career planning, professionalism, and the power of networking. Helping the next generation of leaders sharpen their skills and prepare for what’s ahead has been both rewarding and inspiring. A special thank you to my Ana C Franco for her constant support and encouragement—mentorship takes time and dedication, and I couldn’t do it without her.

Gabriel Prado reacted on thisGabriel Prado reacted on thisYesterday marked the conclusion of my journey at Fluence, as my role was eliminated due to restructuring. In hindsight, I sensed something was off, but my focus remained on meeting year-end targets and supporting the quality team. As I embark on the search for my next opportunity, I want to express my gratitude to all the incredible individuals I had the privilege to meet and collaborate with during my time at Fluence. Navigating an industry that is evolving so rapidly comes with its challenges, yet we consistently found ways to leverage our unique strengths and foster improvement. I wish continued success to all my former colleagues. I am open to connecting and would greatly appreciate any recommendations or leads.

Gabriel Prado liked thisGabriel Prado liked thisOne year of Kiro. What a ride. I've been building with AI-assisted dev tools since the CodeWhisperer days — through Q Developer, and now Kiro. As an early adopter and specialist, I've watched this space evolve from autocomplete to full Spec-Driven Development. This year with Kiro, I've: 🔨 Built everything from PoCs to full customer solutions, internal tools, and even blog posts 🎤 Evangelized Kiro at DevNexus from the AWS booth 🧑🏫 Taught builders in my AI-DLC workshops how to use Hooks — my favorite feature — to run security scans and auto-commit before moving to the next step 🚀 Used every surface: IDE, CLI, Web (still waiting on that mobile app 👀) 🤝 Gotten friends and fellow builders hooked on AI-DLC 🧠 Made Kiro my personal admin — it handles my reports, meeting prep, customer initiative Q&A, status updates… all connected to my files, notes, email, Slack, and SharePoint. Kiro isn't just a tool in my stack — it's how I think about building now. And increasingly, how I work now. Happy 1st birthday 🎂 Kiro #TeamKiro #KiroTurns1 #1YearOfKiro #BuildWithKiro Amazon Web Services (AWS)
