Profile

Experience

From data modeling to technical leadership at VisualNACert.

VisualNACert S.L.

Jan 2018 — Present
  1. Lead Developer

    Oct 2024 — Present

    I lead the backend team (4 people) and oversee the frontend team (3 people). Working with the CTO on migrating the monolith to event-driven services (Spring Boot, Kafka, Debezium, gRPC, EKS), with several services already in production. To make development more autonomous, designed a multi-agent harness that takes Jira tasks to merge requests with our internal framework.

  2. Lead Front-end

    Apr 2022 — Oct 2024

    Technical lead of the web frontend team (2 people) on AngularJS. Proposed and kicked off a progressive migration to React to modernize the frontend while reducing legacy risk.

  3. Full-stack Developer

    Sep 2019 — Apr 2022

    Expanded my role from frontend to backend, developing in Java and improving the application with design patterns to optimize its structure and efficiency.

  4. Front-end Developer

    Jan 2018 — Aug 2019

    Started on the data-loading team: client setup and data modeling/loading in PostgreSQL. Then developed and maintained the agricultural-management web application (AngularJS, JavaScript, SASS).

Projects

  • SongParty

    Preview of SongParty
    • Next.js
    • React
    • Tailwind
    • TypeScript

    Collaborative song lists for karaokes, weddings and parties. Share a QR code, guests join without signing up and suggest songs, and every change reaches everyone in real time with Ably. Lock the list in read-only mode and reorder it by drag and drop.

  • Wedding website

    • Astro
    • TypeScript
    • CSS

    Custom wedding website: event details, transport and RSVP. Access is by a code shared over WhatsApp, with no accounts or sign-up: a lightweight gate designed for non-technical guests, with two levels (with or without a plus-one), and RSVPs are stored in Google Sheets through Apps Script at zero infrastructure cost. Access code: demo.
