What I'm looking for

I am looking for a collaborative environment that values innovation and offers opportunities for growth.

With over 15 years of experience as a Software Engineer, I have dedicated my career to mastering Java and JavaScript while continuously learning and applying best practices in UX, front-end, and back-end development. My journey has been marked by collaboration with high-performing teams that prioritize open communication and knowledge sharing.

At Impulso Games, I successfully designed and developed THRILLKINGS, a multiplayer video game published on Steam, showcasing my ability to manage projects independently while utilizing Unreal Engine 5 and C++. My previous role at Gorilla Logic involved developing systems for satellite imagery, where I contributed to both back-end and front-end technologies, ensuring seamless integration and user experience. I thrive in agile environments and have a proven track record of delivering high-quality software solutions.
