## What I'm looking for

```text
My contract at Checkout.com has completed, and I’m available immediately. I’m looking for roles in Spain or with remote-first European teams.
```

## About

```text
At Checkout.com, I worked on the Payment Flow SDK and merchant integration tooling across Android, iOS and React Native. I published a Kotlin and Jetpack Compose sample app, implemented native SDK changes to complete two React Native releases, and moved payment component spacing into the public styling API.

At Swift Medical, I rebuilt the offline-first app’s synchronization queue in Room, preserving document order while leaving WorkManager to execute the work. Documents that had sat on devices for months synchronized, and the number of Worker instances came down.

I profiled long-session crashes with Android Profiler and Perfetto, then moved the paths users hit most from RxJava to Coroutines and rebuilt some screens in Jetpack Compose. Across a full working session, memory use fell by about 24%, CPU by about 33%, and crash-free users settled at 99.6%.

At PayPal and Mercado Libre, I delivered credit and payment journeys, strengthened end-to-end testing, and built reusable Android components. I’m at my best when a production problem that looks like a bug turns out to be an architecture problem; I’m based in Valencia and available immediately for roles in Spain or remote-first European teams.
