About
I’m a strategic technical leader and senior front-end engineer based in Barcelona, focused on modernizing large-scale product platforms and improving developer experience through strong architecture, automation, and thoughtful delivery practices. I specialize in transforming legacy ecosystems into scalable, high-performance front-end systems using React and Next.js, along with advanced monorepo approaches to reduce technical debt and accelerate feature delivery across multiple products.
I also bring an AI-augmented engineering mindset—integrating AI-assisted workflows and MCP-based tooling to streamline repetitive tasks, improve documentation/refactoring, and support enterprise feature development. Beyond engineering, I’ve led cross-functional teams of up to eight developers, collaborating with UX/UI and stakeholders to deliver accessible, design-consistent experiences (including WCAG/WAI-ARIA) in high-traffic environments.
