Although it superficially resembles a stag beetle (family Lucanidae), it actually is a long-horned wood-boring beetle (family Cerambycidae) in the subfamily Parandrinae, likely in the genus Parandra - see https://colombia.inaturalist.org/taxa/143967-Parandra
We have similar-appearing species here in a different genus, known as 'pole borers.'
