I am a location agnostic global citizen that can be found frequently pondering what are the biggest challenges we face as a society and how to go about solving them. I am borderline OCD around effectiveness and efficiency. Through years of experience I have developed a keen understanding of tech, people and how to ship projects while enjoying the process!

I'm looking for a team of smart people with a clear vision that are focused on solving a problem that factors in the triple bottom line that can support me in further developing my skills while leveraging my previous knowledge and experience around tech & Agile. I am particularly keen to work at an incubator/accelerator/venture capital fund and work closely with smaller startup teams and support them on their mission.

I was responsible for building and managing a dev focused team with the goal of shipping an initial prototype to gauge Barcelona as a base for a new office.

After 4 months the following was delivered:

• A central office space equipped for comfort (& fun!)
• An initial team of 2 backend devs, 1 frontend dev & an Agile Coach
• Clearly defined technical stack & agile processes (TDD, Continuous Integration, Capistrano for deploys, JIRA with custom workflows, AWS...)
• A platform that could handle 10 Million pagesviews/day

The Kodify office subsequently took over the operations of a larger network of sites that now manages over 40 Million pageviews/day.

+4 years experience bridging the tech/business gap working with stakeholders and development teams to deliver high quality solutions on web & mobile web platforms.

• Solid understanding of our technical stack & processes and how that related to the development process

After discovering Agile around 5 years ago, I've been fortunate enough to work alongside some of the most well regarded mentors and coaches in Spain.

• I successfully implemented Agile processes at the last 2 companies I worked at
• I have run workshops and speaking engagements on Agile
• I have collaborated at incubators and accelerators, mentoring teams with their processes, creating a custom "flavor" of Agile for teams that where working within a 3 month incubation program.

Passionate about SEO, for many years I've been fascinated with Google and it's ability to provide targeted, highly qualified traffic. I am currently interested in using my new found coding skills to play around with machine learning as a way to optimize the SEO process.

• I was responsible for leading a team that grew organic non-branded traffic on a network of sites from 6.000 unique visitors/day to over 600.000 visitors/day
• I have spoken at conferences (Congreso Seo Profesional & Joomla Day! among others) & run workshops
• Taught SEO at Universidad Católica de Valencia as part of their Online Marketing Masters degree
• I have coached and mentored startups on SEO

Over the years I have started and participated in many different projects with varying degrees of success, and am constantly on the lookout for opportunities and ways to improve existing solutions.

• Setup business, raised funds and eventually sold an e-commerce platform selling sunglasses: GafasDeSol.com
• Participated in multiple hackathons (1st place, 3rd place - video)
• Mentor to multiple startup teams at Demium Startups

I live by the Japanese principle of "Kaizen" or continuous improvement, and am forever curious constantly looking to understand, expand and grow.

I recently attended the latest edition of Hive conscious leadership program in San Francisco. (Hive is a global network of leaders and entrepreneurs who are working to create a better world.).

For many years I have been the only person in the room that couldn't code, so I decided to join Makers Academy to deepen my understanding and passion for tech.

• Passionate about what code can enable us to achieve
• Solid understanding of the principles around what's required to ship valuable software
• Found myself gravitating towards backend Ruby (Rails & Sinatra) & JS (Node.js)
• Built multiple RESTFUL API's
• TDD + CI
• Git + Gitflow

• Instawonk: Rails APP + Instagram API (http://www.instawonk.com/)
• Treemo : Rails Web APP + API (http://treemo-dev.herokuapp.com/). Mobile using Ionic
• Sample tech test : Pure Ruby, TDD

From early on I'd been passionate about tinkering with computers, but it was during my course here that I deepened my understanding and love of technology as a means to an end to achieve things things that would otherwise be impossible.

• Web Development
• 3D CAD modeling
• Prototyping
