Joaquin Soto: Evolved Profile — Systems Architect & Research Innovator

Joaquin Soto

Systems Architect · Regenerative Innovator · Research Lead

Overview & Evolution

With a foundation in Computer Science (M.S., B.S., A.S.) and 20+ years building durable platforms in telecom, healthcare, marketing and commercial realstate CRE, I've evolved to apply systems thinking to regenerative territorial research, cultural preservation, and consciousness/computation exploration. From enterprise architectures (redIQ acquired by Berkadia) to living labs (Eden in Puembo), my work focuses on resilient, long-horizon systems that integrate technology, ecology, and human intent.

Current phase: Leading IamPro.one as an ecosystem for applied research—bridging CS with sustainability (Eden in Puembo as territorial lab vivo), cultural regeneration (Campo VIVO, Tío Lando/Buen Fruto/Hallacas/Radio La Floresta), and emergent computation (Lumenol, Phoenix Zero as research vessels).

Professional Track Record

  • Founder & Lead Architect, IamPro.one (2022–Present): Building regenerative ecosystems: Eden in Puembo (territorial lab for bioengineering/hydrology/resilience), Campo VIVO (regenerative tourism network), Tío Lando/Buen Fruto (craft food rescue), Hallacas (migration memory rituals), Radio La Floresta (community media). Lumenol as research on consciousness/computation; Phoenix Zero as emergent systems exploration.
  • Principal Engineer & Chief Architect, Berkadia (2017–2021): Post-redIQ acquisition, modernized platforms for commercial real estate data (Berkshire Hathaway/Jefferies JV). Focused on durability amid organizational change.
  • Co-Founder & CTO, redIQ (2012–2017): Architected data normalization/automation for CRE analytics; acquired by Berkadia. Systems still operational post-acquisition.
  • VP Software Development, Everyday Health (2007–2012): Led global teams for digital health platforms; contributed to IPO.
  • Head of IT / Software Engineer, Patient Care (2004–2007): Built OCR/LMS/triage systems for hospice/clinical workflows.
  • IT Specialist, Telcordia/SAIC (1999–2004): Supported global telecom research infrastructure.
  • Technology Architect, SmartChoice (2000–2003): Pioneered VoIP/billing systems.

Core Capabilities

  • Systems Architecture: Design durable, failure-resistant platforms (telecom VoIP, CRE data, territorial labs).
  • Applied Research: Living labs (Eden in Puembo bioengineering/hydrology), consciousness/computation (Lumenol).
  • Regenerative Innovation: Cultural/sustainability projects (Campo VIVO tourism, Tío Lando craft, Buen Fruto food rescue).
  • Leadership: Cross-cultural teams, long-horizon thinking, incentive alignment.
