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.
Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering from University of Buenos Aires. Specialized in Programming, Project Management, and R&D in web technologies.
According to PwC, over 70% of executives believe AI will significantly reshape their business in the next three years. Yet only about one in five organizations has a comprehensive responsible-AI policy in place. That gap isn’t academic—it’s expensive. We’ve all seen the headlines: biased hiring models quietly sidelining women; underwriting algorithms triggering class-action lawsuits; deepfake…
Finding a good developer is tough. Finding a truly exceptional one—someone who doesn’t just code, but innovates, collaborates, and leads—can feel nearly impossible. In a global talent pool with millions of engineers, how do you find those rare individuals who will actually move your business forward? A company’s success depends on hiring the right talent…
The role of software engineers is evolving faster than ever. With AI becoming much more than just a tool I couldn’t help but wonder:How our day-to-day work as engineers will evolve, and more importantly, what skills we’ll need to stay not just relevant, but infinitely more productive by 2026? According to Cip Huyen in The…
I’m Damian Wasserman, co-founder at BEON.tech. I wrote this as part of my ongoing exploration into how AI is transforming software engineering. Through these posts, I aim to share practical takeaways to help our 150+ BEONers — and the broader developer community — stay at the forefront of this new era of AI-augmented engineering because…
Latin America has rapidly emerged as a leading nearshore destination for software outsourcing. The region combines world-class technical talent and education with significantly lower costs than in the US or Europe. Choosing to hire software developers in Latin America allows businesses to tap into a thriving talent pool of skilled professionals, while also benefiting from…
AI is everywhere, and executives are under pressure to deliver real results with it. But building AI-powered products isn’t about hiring the trendiest new role or throwing people at the problem — it’s about assembling the right engineering team. In this post, we’ll walk you through the AI engineer tech stack that actually delivers value…
It’s no secret that AI tools are reshaping how developers work. From automating boilerplate code to boosting daily productivity, artificial intelligence has evolved from a sidekick to a co-pilot — and in many cases, the pilot itself. The adoption of these tools is rapidly becoming the norm, with usage rates ranging from 70% to 82%…
Code-generating large language models (LLMs) are transforming software development. By automating repetitive coding tasks, assisting with debugging, and even generating functional code from simple prompts, these models allow development teams to work faster, more efficiently, and with greater focus on complex challenges. As businesses increasingly adopt AI-powered tools to streamline operations and reduce development cycles,…
Frontend development has come a long way since the days of static HTML pages and simple styling. Today’s web interfaces are fast, interactive, and dynamic—closer to full-blown applications than websites. And over the past five years, we’ve seen another major shift in the evolution of frontend development: from monolithic frontend codebases to modular architectures, performance-optimized…
