JP Padilla Mexico City

Operator & writer. Building at the intersection of AI systems and business leverage.

I help build companies, systems, and workflows. Based in Mexico City, I work in tech across AI systems, go-to-market, and business architecture.

My background is economics and finance. My work is operational. That combination sits at a rare intersection: most AI thinking is either technical research disconnected from business reality, or shallow productivity content disconnected from strategy.

My current focus is Amplification Theory: an essay series on what happens to competitive advantage when intelligence becomes abundant.

I'm interested in the operators, not the observers. In people documenting a paradigm shift in real time, not commenting on it.
