Hi! My name is Antonio, I am catholic, a husband, a father, a software engineer, a black belt in taekwondo and a drummer! When I’m not doing any of those things, you might catch me playing padel, surfing or tinkering with random technologies.

I am an enthusiastic software engineer with 7+ work experience and a certified martial arts instructor. Interested in all things related to software, technology, leadership, agile methodologies, eciency and optimization. I care deeply about the customer and about my team. I am a fast learner, highly focused and hard worker always trying to keep up with the world. I love working in fast-paced environments that are always trying to deliver new features fully focused on the customer.

Currently, I work as a software engineer using eXtreme Programming as our methodology. We work in small teams and each team is fully responsible for the tech stack, the continuous integration pipeline and the infrastructure. Each one of us is responsible for applying agile methodologies in our day-to-day work, ensuring best practices across our solutions, managing our release pipeline and automating all the boring stuff.

I am currently investing a lot into the crypto world, getting better at trading and solidity smart contracts.

I have a lot of experience with SQL, python, typescript, javascript, Git, Node, Docker and ReactJS. Also, I love regex and with every opportunity I have to use some great patterns I’ll go for it!

I’m improving my skills in all things AWS, Go, Flask and solidity!

Here is a copy of my CV if you are interested.
