Personal profile


I’m passionate about new technologies, since my very first contact with my Spectrum 64k and her BASIC tutorial.
I’m a Senior Java, Scala, BigData and GIS developer. Since 1998, I have worked on more than 50 large scale projects, mainly all in Java and related technologies.
No one is more of a Java / Scala evangelist and advocate than me.
Recently, I have been in technical positions as senior software developer and tech lead, sometimes shared with team manager, software architect and project manager responsibilities.
I’m looking for challenges in large projects for big companies and visionary startups. I bring to every project agile methodologies and desire to be with a great team.
My motto is that good software is only possible with happy developers in a great work environment.

My more meritorious project has been my own startup project: www.simplexportal.com/en/index.html, a CMS / ecommerce SAAS platform developed from the scratch, where I demonstrate that usability and simplicity are compatible with flexibility, powerful and performance, and It's possible using standard technologies.

In last years, my key achievements have been develop large cost software for startup projects with very low resources and in short time, using technologies considered expensive, like GIS frameworks / platforms and JavaEE, using opensource tools and frameworks.

In 2001 I was the Java tech lead in the first enterprise project base in Java/J2EE in an important bank company (Santander Bank). My share in this project was recompensed with a 2 year contract in this company as Java tech lead in one of the more important departments (The Treasury Department).
