JUAN ALVAREZ / ENGINEERING. PRODUCTS. APPLIED AI.

Good solutions
start before
writing code.

I’m Juan Alvarez. I connect business, engineering, and applied AI to build products that solve real problems.

What do you have in mind?

02 / SELECTED PROJECTS

Ideas that become
real products.

All projects
Pilot validation

Kliniox

Dental practice management software that connects patient records, scheduling, treatments, payments, and inventory in one workflow. Built around on-site work at CLIOLAB, it includes an AI-assisted digitization pilot to recover historical records and link them to their original documents.

  • React
  • Supabase / PostgreSQL
  • Next.js
  • OCR and applied AI

SaaS in pilot validation

Fluvora

A commercial assistance platform that connects each business’s knowledge with its customer conversations. It combines information retrieval, language models, and messaging integrations to support the team with context-aware responses, governed by business rules and evaluated through pilot validation.

  • RAG
  • LLMs
  • Embeddings
  • APIs REST

Ongoing transformation

Cliolab Plus

Modernization of a dental practice and laboratory with a thirty-year history, bringing together infrastructure renewal, digital dentistry, and process automation. The project includes a new digital laboratory, two renewed treatment stations, and web presence development, supported by internal operational protocols.

  • Digital dentistry
  • Intraoral scanners
  • Process automation
  • Operational protocols

IN MY LAB

Questions worth an experiment.

Kivodx

Exploration and prototyping
AI-assisted design

Exploring how businesses and people can create visuals aligned with their brand without mastering design or prompting.

VOP

Conceptual research
From problem to plan

Investigating how business needs become implementation plans that account for feasibility, alternatives, and risks.

03 / MY PROCESS

Questions first.
Tools come next.

  1. 01

    Understand

    The problem, the people, and the outcome they actually need.

  2. 02

    Diagnose

    Constraints, dependencies, opportunities, and alternatives.

  3. 03

    Design

    A solution that fits the context and available resources.

  4. 04

    Build

    Incremental deliveries that validate value early.

  5. 05

    Validate and improve

    Measure outcomes, listen to people, and adjust.

Technology has to justify its existence through the problem it solves.

04 / ABOUT ME

An engineer by profession.
Curious by nature.

I enjoy understanding why things work the way they do and how they could work better. That curiosity connects my software work with product development and business strategy.

I bring together product judgment, software architecture, and hands-on technical delivery. My work spans e-commerce, clinical management, and applied AI, connecting interfaces, backend services, and integrations to address specific operational needs and automate processes.

I want to build useful products and bring to life the ideas that too often stay tucked away in a note.
