AI Engineer and IT Manager driving scalable backend, DevOps, and IoT solutions.
SpainWhat I'm looking for
I am an AI Engineer and IT Manager with extensive experience leading development teams, building on-premise LLM solutions, RAG chatbots, and scalable backend systems using Python, Node.js and PHP. I combine hands-on DevOps (Docker Swarm, Jenkins, ElasticSearch), IoT implementations, and stakeholder-facing delivery to align technology with business goals.
As head of a 15-person development department I have improved turnover through legacy refactors, retained talent through mentorship and culture, and delivered rapid, secure infrastructure (VPN for remote work) that materially increased revenue. I prioritize cross-functional collaboration, knowledge sharing, and pragmatic technical leadership to drive measurable outcomes.
