Co-founder & Head of Sales

Damian Wasserman is the co-founder of BEON.tech, which he started in 2018 with Michel Cohen, and he leads the company’s sales team. Since then he has spent his days connecting leading US companies with top-tier engineers from Latin America. He has always been drawn to two things at once: the technical work of making things run and the business side of building something new, and technology has been the bridge that lets him create more than he could build with his own two hands. After several years away from hands-on coding, AI brought him back over the past two years, and he says he is now several times more productive than before. Today he builds something new almost every day, from integrations and automations to AI skills he shares with the BEON.tech team so the company can lead the way in how engineering teams work with AI. A member of the Forbes Technology Council, Damian writes about nearshore software development, staff augmentation, hiring engineers in Latin America, and how AI is changing the way engineering teams are built.

Workplace Distractions in Tech Teams

It’s 5:00 PM. You’ve been “on” all day—standups, incident chatter, stakeholder pings, a surprise roadmap question, and a calendar invite you didn’t accept but couldn’t ignore. You close your laptop exhausted… and slightly uneasy, because the one thing you needed most—an uninterrupted block of deep work—never happened. For tech leaders, that feeling isn’t just a…

7 Skills Engineers Need in an AI-Driven Future

The question most developers are quietly asking isn’t “will AI replace me?” It’s something more practical: what do I need to know to stay valuable as AI in engineering reshapes my role? That’s the right question. And the answer isn’t “learn to use Copilot.” It’s significantly broader than that. According to PwC’s research on GenAI…

AI Workflow Playbook for Developers

Most developers aren’t losing to AI. They’re losing to developers who’ve figured out how to use it well. That’s the real split happening in engineering teams right now. Not “humans vs. AI” — but engineers who’ve integrated AI into their daily routines in a deliberate, disciplined way, and engineers who still treat it as an…

What Is a Product Engineer and Why It Matters

You’ve probably seen it before: a team ships a feature on time, under budget, exactly to spec — and nobody uses it. Or a PM writes a perfectly reasonable brief that engineering then spends two sprints re-scoping because the spec missed half the technical constraints. Both scenarios cost time, money, and trust.These aren’t execution failures.

How to Choose the Right Tech Stack

Every CTO knows the moment: you’re about to greenlight a new build (or a major rebuild), deadlines are tight, stakeholders want confidence, and the team is pushing for choices that will determine the next 2–5 years of delivery. You’re trying to balance speed-to-market with scalability, stability, security, and—now—AI readiness. The pressure is real because the…

Generative AI for Developer Productivity

Generative AI is no longer a “nice-to-have” for engineering teams. It’s quickly becoming part of the default toolchain—alongside your IDE, CI/CD, and observability stack. The reason is simple: when used well, generative AI for developers reduces friction across the software development lifecycle and helps teams ship faster without requiring a linear increase in headcount. Adoption…

Talent Supply vs. Talent Readiness in Tech

Across industries, executives share a growing frustration: job openings attract hundreds—or even thousands—of applicants, yet critical roles remain unfilled for months. On paper, talent supply appears abundant. In practice, teams struggle to find professionals who can step in and deliver value quickly. This contradiction sits at the heart of today’s IT talent gap. Organizations are…
