WHO AM I?

I am a Software Engineer with DevOps experience that is always eager to learn, create solutions, perfecting my skills and taking on challenges. Living in The Netherlands since 2019, born 23/12/1996 in Spain.

I mostly program in Haskell, Scala, Python, SQL, Nix, Shell and the occasional other. Given the choice I prefer to design software using the functional programming paradigm. My storage engine experience revolves around PostgreSQL, MariaDB, ElasticSearch, OracleSQL, NoSQL DBs like BigTable, Redis, MongoDB, Firebase.

I love the Ops side of the projects and platforms too. To say I am a Nix and GNU/Linux enthusiast is an understatement. I like distributed tracing, infrastructure-as-code, CI/CD, type-safe languages and functional programming.

I love to create solutions of high quality and reliability, constantly improving, automating workflows, creating fast and solid programs, helping and teaching others and to express myself via my creations.
