Leading digital transformation at Carpetizing — Vancouver, BC

The Roots

The roots don't show. That's the point.

01 //

Build first

Before I touched a design tool, I was debugging network infrastructure for one of Mexico's largest energy companies. Avaya switches, Nortel servers, systems that could not go down. That taught me the discipline most creatives skip: build things that actually work before you talk about them.

02 //

Skin in the game

I moved to Vancouver and joined Carpetizing as a Cleaning Supervisor. Web development and digital responsibilities expanded within my employment: I proposed and led a complete redesign of the company website — from WordPress to Next.js, with a new visual identity and a strategic shift toward B2B clients. Management approved the work and we built it together. That project is what this portfolio is built around.

The convergence

Mechatronics. IT infrastructure. Operations. Web design. Motion. Code. Each discipline added a layer. This portfolio is where engineering precision meets design craft — documented honestly.

ᚢᚷᛞᚱᚫᛋᛁᛚ  —  Kurt Badillo García

Currently working at Carpetizing as a Web Developer & Digital Strategist — based in Vancouver, BC.

I'm Kurt Badillo García — a bilingual Web Developer & Digital Strategist based in Vancouver, BC.

My background is in Mechatronic Engineering and IT infrastructure supervision (Comisión Federal de Electricidad, Mexico City — national call center infrastructure, Avaya/Nortel systems). I moved to Vancouver in 2019 and have been building technical and digital skills in parallel with my work at Carpetizing, where I currently serve as Cleaning Supervisor.

At Carpetizing, I proposed and led a complete digital transformation — migrating the company website from WordPress to a custom Next.js application with a new visual identity and a strategic pivot toward B2B commercial contracts. The project was approved and supported by company management.

I'm currently enrolled in Business Management at Canadian College, Vancouver, and hold a Bachelor's degree in Mechatronic Engineering.

Bilingual in Spanish and English. This site documents professional work at Carpetizing alongside personal experiments and collaborations — precision and clarity in both languages.
