Profile

Digital technical lead with over 20 years of experience in software development, now focused on the media industry. I cover the full lifecycle of web platforms: development, data, integrations, deployment and cloud operations.

I'm proactive: I anticipate problems, spot opportunities for improvement and propose solutions without waiting to be asked. My approach is pragmatic and careful: changes are tested before they reach production, solutions stay simple when complexity isn't justified, and code avoids unnecessary dependencies.
