Background

I am Master of Science in Computer Science by the University of A Coruña. Since I was eleven, computers and I are inseparable. I started my career in Stuttgart and Munich programming in Java. In Germany I learned how to work with high demanding clients in the German automotive industry and with tenacity, also to speak in German. Besides in German, you can also contact me in English, Spanish or Galician.

After a while, I realized I wanted to spend more time with my family, so I went back to Spain, specifically to Barcelona. In Barcelona I started using Ruby on Rails in my daily job (by the way, excellent decision as far as happiness is concerned). After some years being away, in 2017 I decided it was time to really return home, so I started working remotely and went back to my home town, A Coruña. Currently I work at Spin as Senior Software Engineer, Backend Lead, remotely from A Coruña.

In my free time I like to learn new things about many subjects (although they may seem useless) and read many books. I enjoy sailing and walking, specially near Tower of Hercules. I love contributing to Open Source, specially to Ruby on Rails. I enjoy the feeling of giving back to the community and to be able to shape the software I use as I think it should be.
