I am a software engineer passionate about building and delivering high-quality software. My expertise ranges from getting into the nitty-gritty details of code (mainly JavaScript and infrastructure) to leading teams, designing software solutions, testing them and communicating progress. I believe that good software is built through collaboration and communication, so I am a big fan of the DevOps ways of working. I am excited about solving real-world problems, mainly with technology (sometimes it starts operationally and then gets automated). I do not know many things, but I know how to learn them efficiently and rapidly. My untraditional career path has equipped me with versatility across the software lifecycle, with a depth of knowledge in a few vital areas and a breadth that covers all the necessary tasks. I had the opportunities to work in multiple roles in the software industry, starting with testing, development, and product/project management. I love learning and sharing my knowledge - currently part of the AWS Community Builders program, which offers technical resources, mentorship and networking opportunities.
