About me

I am a Software Engineer MSc. with more than 6 years of experience as an Android Developer. I worked in an Agency where I learned how to move fast from one project to another, and currently, I work in a startup (Scondoo) where I am the only Android Developer adding new features, fixing bugs and refactoring every time I find it necessary.

The most recent improvements I made to the Scondoo app are:

  • Refactor the whole architecture to a "Clean" model.
  • Refactor to use Kotlin in all code.
  • Add missing tests to the critical parts.
  • Migrate to some Android Architecture Components like ROOM, LiveData, and ViewModels.

Learning new technology is one of my hobbies. My last, not Android related projects are:

  • An iOS application of Scondoo using RxSwift, Coreadata, and no StoryBoards.
  • A node.js, MongoDB Web app to manage google calendar events as a todo list. Task Fighter
  • A React Native app for tourists visiting Spain by car.Arr

I am Spanish and lived in Berlin for 5 years. Now I live in Madrid and work remotely from home or a co-working space.

When I am not coding I like to travel 🛫, do snowboard 🏂, HapKiDo 🥋 or spent time with Kelly 🐶
