My experience includes software development and consultancy in a wide range of industries, such as telco, mining, manufacturing, and, most recently, SaaS. I count on 19 years of technical proficiency, chiefly in Java, Python, Google Cloud, and DevOps. However, since 2019 I have been specializing in the data ecosystem: Data Governance, Metadata Management, and emerging fields such as Data Lineage, DataOps, and MLOps. Regarding behavior and soft skills, I am a person who performs better as a team player than as an individual contributor, has been looking to practice engineering leadership from a people-first perspective, and enjoys customer-facing roles.
