Born in Montevideo, Szlafmyc studied Economics before switching taking a technical course to become a football manager at the age of 18. He worked as a youth coach for Rampla Juniors, Miramar Misiones and Fénix before being invited by manager Ariel Holan to join his staff at Argentine side Defensa y Justicia in the end of 2015.[1]

After Holan left Defensa, Szlafmyc returned to his home country and to Miramar, working as manager of the under-16 team.[1] He was offered a role as manager of Plaza Colonia's reserves in early 2017,[1] before being named first team manager of the latter on 11 January 2018.[2]

Szlafmyc led Plaza back to the Primera División,[3] but resigned on 27 March 2019.[4] In July, he returned to Miramar to work as a sporting director,[5] and subsequently joined Alexander Medina's staff at Talleres de Córdoba on 25 December.[6]

On 20 February 2021, Szlafmyc was named in charge of Segunda División side Central Español.[7] He was dismissed on 22 April 2022,[8] and returned to the top tier on 7 June after taking over Cerrito.[9]

On 9 July 2022, Szlafmyc resigned from Cerrito.[10]
