To Whom It May Concern,
I am pleased to write this letter of recommendation for Fabrizio Jose Salas Soto, who was employed as a Software Application Development Engineer at Intel Corporation from May 1, 2024 until the closure of our Intel Costa Rica site. During this time, Fabrizio reported directly to me as part of the Enterprise Process and Performance team, where I had the opportunity to observe his work, his professionalism, and his continuous commitment to excellence.
Fabrizio is an exceptional engineer with a broad and valuable skill set. He demonstrated strong capabilities in software development, scripting, database handling, graphic design, web services, and the use of various design tools and methodologies. His solid understanding of operating systems and business management methodologies allowed him not only to deliver high-quality technical solutions but also to approach problems with a clear sense of business impact and process optimization. Equally impressive were his contributions in technical support and mentoring. Fabrizio has a natural ability to explain complex concepts in a clear and approachable way, and he consistently supported teammates through knowledge-sharing and collaborative problem-solving. His positive attitude, curiosity, and willingness to step outside his assigned duties made him a highly dependable team member and someone I could always rely on. Throughout his time at Intel, Fabrizio was consistently professional, proactive, and dedicated. He produced high- quality work, met demanding timelines, and adapted quickly to changing project requirements. It is important to note that his departure from Intel was not performance-related, but rather the unfortunate result of the Intel Costa Rica site closure.
I am confident that Fabrizio will be an invaluable asset to any organization. He brings technical expertise, creativity, strong work ethic, and a collaborative mindset—qualities that are increasingly rare and highly sought after in today’s technology landscape. I recommend him without reservation for any role aligned with his skills and interests.
If you require any additional information, please feel free to contact me. Sincerely,
Matt Lunsford

Subject: Recommendation for Fabrizio Salas Soto
To whom it may concern,
I am writing to enthusiastically recommend Fabrizio Salas Soto, who I have had the pleasure of working alongside for last 18 months as technical collaborator at Intel Corporation. Fabrizio is an exceptionally skilled and dedicated professional with a strong work ethic. During my collaboration time with him, he consistently demonstrated a deep understanding of software development lifecycle processes and project management methodologies. What truly sets him apart is his excellent expertise in utilizing and configuring Atlassian tools, particularly Jira, to drive efficiency and transparency across our design engineering teams.
In such position, he was responsible for key initiatives that leveraged Jira to optimize our workflows. For example:
• Automation and Integration: Fabrizio helped our team to install and manage advanced Jira automations and integrations using Jira's ScriptRunner utilities which are critical for our multiple Jira projects, significantly boosting team productivity.
• Agile Best Practices: Fabrizio served as a subject matter expert, providing guidance and training to technical and non-technical teams on Agile methodologies (Scrum/Kanban) within the Jira framework, ensuring alignment with project objectives and best practices.
• Problem-Solving: When we encountered performance bottlenecks in our Jira projects in production, Fabrizio proactively troubleshot and optimized our Jira performance and overall user experience, ensuring smooth operations for all stakeholders. Fabrizio is a solutions-oriented individual who is always looking for ways to improve skills and knowledge. His ability to manage complex configurations while supporting user adoption makes him a highly asset to any organization using the Atlassian suite.
I am confident that Fabrizio would be an outstanding asset to any technical team. He is an excellent candidate for a Project Manager /Scrum Master or Senior Software Engineer position. I’d highly recommend him without reservation. Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have. Sincerely,
Gilda Garreton
