An engineering practice for the businesses that actually make things.

How Flujo started.

I'm a Manufacturing Engineer by training and a builder by instinct. For more than a decade I've worked inside and alongside manufacturers, fabricators, and construction firms — the kind of businesses that quote a job in one system, schedule it in another, run it on a third, and bill for it in a fourth. By the time anyone could compare what was quoted to what was actually built, the next quarter had already started.

I kept solving the same problem for different companies: connect the systems, build the warehouse, surface the truth, and put a tool in front of the people doing the work so they could do something with it. After enough engagements, it became obvious this wasn't a side project — it was a practice. Flujo is that practice.

What makes Flujo different.

Most data consultants come from analytics. They learned manufacturing on a project, or from a YouTube series, or — worse — not at all. They sell you Power BI dashboards because dashboards are what they know how to make.

I came up the other way: a manufacturing engineer who learned data because the manufacturing problems demanded it. I've stood on shop floors in San Diego, Tijuana, and Mexicali. I've watched estimators argue with foremen over numbers neither could verify. I've sat in QuickBooks, Sage, and SAP for hours debugging why month-end didn't tie. I write the React app and I write the warehouse SQL. The person you talk to is the person who builds it.

The bilingual edge.

A real differentiator: I work natively in English and Spanish. For SMB manufacturers operating across the US–México border — from San Diego–Tijuana up through the maquiladora corridor — this matters more than people from outside the region realize. Operations directors who live the cross-border reality every day know the pain of vendors who only speak one half of the language.

What we believe.

• Data is plumbing, not magic. The boring stuff (clean pipelines, defined metrics, documentation) matters more than the flashy stuff.
• Dashboards are the floor, not the ceiling. A dashboard tells you what happened. A custom app helps your team decide what to do next.
• You should own what we build. Code in your repo. Cloud in your account. Reports in your tenant. No lock-in, no per-seat fees from us.
• Honest answers beat big proposals. Sometimes the right answer is "fix two settings in QuickBooks and call it a day." We'll say so.
• Manufacturing is undeserved by tech. The industry is enormous and the data tooling is decades behind retail and finance. That gap is the opportunity.
