Edit 5th September 2025
I signed with Rover.com to join the M&A Integrations team as Staff Eng đź‘Ź
I’m super happy to join a company that we are users at home, and see the other part of the product.
LATEST NEWS! 🚀 After some months of consideration, I’m ready to start for my next professional challenge, as FTE for a product company. Hybrid at Barcelona or Full remote.
You want to know why now, see How did I get here?
How can I help companies?
I adapt a lot to the company challenge at hand. I don’t consider one-size-fits all solution or silver bullets exist. That’s why I focus on deeply understanding the company context and business, the product, the users, and their needs, and how everything fits together.
This mindset let me into driving initiatives such as:
Execute a strategy that has been blocked for a long while, and you feel that the teams don’t understand the big picture.
Incremental architectural modernizations.
Understand the team bottlenecks, and drive improvement initiatives, that required:
Technical migrations
Upskilling team members
Coordinating multiple releases with multiple teams without downtime
Understand legacy systems that were causing production incidents, and stabilize those systems to keep adding value to our customers.
Set good and best practices to improve the engineering maturity, with good CI/CD pipelines, adopting key XP practices, setup good testing based, and good observability tooling.
For which position?
I’m looking for a Staff+ Engineer position.
I’m a strong contributor to the company strategy and making it happen with a hands-on approach. I have been leading cross-team initiatives, some with direct authority, but most required influencing key stakeholders, and teams to move the initiative forward.
That’s why I consider that working as Staff+ Engineer I can contribute to the product development, improve the system’s architecture, and mentor other engineers along the process.
Which domains/industries I have experience with?
I had the opportunity to work on multiple domains, industry, and business models. Here is a list of the ones I feel more comfortable with:
Fintech that implies regulation (Creditas)
Dev productivity products (Teamperature)
Dev tooling (Testcontainers)
Two-sided marketplaces (Under NDA)
E-commerce (Otto)

How did I get here?
For the last two years, I have been pushing my mission forward:
To help technical leaders to make better informed decisions.
And I did it in two different ways; building a product and offering my training services. The latter is working better than the former so far.
Started with EnablingFlow and later joined Teamperature
The mission of Teamperature aligned so well with my personal purpose. So, I decided to join Teamperature with Manuel, co-author of Team Topologies.
I had been part of the Team Topologies community for a while, and the problem we were solving as a product as something I did as a Head of Engineering.
It was the perfect match, but the market isn’t there yet.
The developer productivity market is tough, and we were pushed into offering services on top of the product. I can explain more about this in another post.
For the last 2 years, I have been coaching Staff+ Engineers and Engineering Managers. It has been an amazing experience.
I had a constant flow of people asking how to level up their skills, and have bigger impact in their organizations. Stuff from driving huge architectural migrations, while getting the buy-in from the C-level, to changing full B2C onboarding flows to enable fast experiments.
At some point, I decided to start doing group training to help those people that cannot afford personal coaching, while having a great practical experience.
From that need I started engineeringstrategy.academy, and I’m enjoying it a lot. It feels so rewarding to see people improving their strategic thinking within weeks, for something that people might take months to years.
I just realized this is something I’m enjoying doing but it doesn’t require a full-time dedication. I’m running the coaching sessions and trainings as an afternoon initiative.
I’m missing working with more people
I have been helping people on driving high-stake business challenges. And while doing it, I felt that I was missing that part of cross-team collaboration, cross-team influencing to drive an initiative, coaching people, and see their growth while working together.
One of the best experiences I had was at Creditas, working with talented people, building a great product, while improving our product-engineering culture. It was amazing to see the whole progress when you look back.
It implied:
Collaborating with business, product, design, customer success.
Collaborating on the design and execution of an engineering strategy.
Training people on advance topics such as DDD, Team Topologies, Event-Driven Architectures, and Evolutionary Architecture.
Critical projects hands-on when needed to:
Train people on specific practices, methodologies, or architectures.
Deliver key system components
And after feeling and thinking it for a while, I realized that being part of something bigger fulfills my personal mission while enjoying the energy that gives me being part of a higher mission.
