About Maho Pacheco

Maho Pacheco is Chief Technology Officer at SOMOS.tech (We are tech). Location: Greater Seattle Area, United States.

I’m Maho, a software engineer with 20+ years of experience, a love for open source, and a knack for building at the intersection of AI, edge computing, and real-world impact. At Microsoft, I design and deploy industrial IoT systems with Kubernetes, Azure Arc, and MQTT. I’ve worked closely with energy companies to build AI-powered edge solutions like real-time leak detection, centralized thousands of sensitive assets, and led architectural efforts for scalable, secure systems. I also serve as CTO at SOMOS.tech, where we support Latinx professionals in tech through mentorship, community, and AI-driven tools. We’re building better futures, one career at a time. A few things about me: * Open source isn’t just a preference, it’s how I breathe * I lead through empathy and ship real results * I enjoy hard debates, and I listen when I’m wrong * AI should amplify human creativity, not replace it If you're a recruiter, engineer, founder, or just a curious mind who enjoys raccoons and spicy code metaphors, feel free to reach out. Or buy me a beer or coffee. Your call. maho.dev youtube.com/@TheRaccoonBytes mahopacheco.substack.com
