Jefferson Sanchez is a builder — of companies, of systems, and of communities. Away from the laptop, he's on the mats. As the founder of The Union Muay Thai Boxing, Jefferson trains and competes in Muay Thai, drawn to the discipline for the same reasons he's drawn to engineering: precise technique, continuous improvement, and no shortcuts.

Based in Miami, he's deeply embedded in the city's energy — its construction boom, its Latin American entrepreneurial culture, its proximity to both South American markets and US tech corridors. Miami isn't just where he lives; it's the context that sharpens his perspective on urban development, climate resilience, and the future of the built environment.

Jefferson moves between technical work and human conversation fluidly. He's as comfortable discussing MEP coordination workflows as he is talking about the cultural dynamics of the construction industry, the mechanics of a good teep kick, or the first principles behind why most renovation projects fail. He reads widely, builds persistently, and trains daily.

Outside of work and training, he's interested in the intersection of AI and physical labor — not as a displacement thesis, but as a collaboration model. He believes the most interesting problems in construction technology aren't purely software problems. They're coordination problems, trust problems, and workflow problems that software can help solve.
