01 · The Office
I've been building software since 1997 and leading teams for over a decade. Today I help clients bring AI into how they build and test software, from agentic workflows to CI pipelines that fix their own tests. Next, I'm looking for a role where engineering meets everything else.
What's next
I’m open to full-time roles (preferred) and freelance engagements. Not another seat working through tickets: a role where someone needs to connect technology with the people who use it, sell it or make art with it.
Getting teams to actually use AI well, not just license it: choosing the tools, designing the workflows and training the people who will use them every day.
The person between engineering, marketing and production, who can prototype the idea, judge the output and explain the trade-offs to everyone at the table.
For teams building AI-powered products, especially where the product meets content, media or creative work. Hands-on with the architecture and the code, and with the people side too: hiring, mentoring and running the team.
Why me
Today I help clients automate how they build and test software with AI: agentic workflows for the team, and AI inside the pipeline itself, like CI tests that heal themselves when the interface changes. And when the tools don't talk to each other, I connect them, so nothing falls through the gap.
I still build. I develop agentically, end to end: this site, my games, and the custom tools behind my video pipeline. When I recommend a workflow to a team, it's one I use myself.
Product owner, Scrum master, the link between agencies and clients and between business and developers. I translate in both directions, so decisions get made by people who actually understand them.
At Netcentric I helped hire developers with more potential than experience. Some of them became senior developers and architects. I still mentor today, through the CEEI and one-to-one.
Since 1997
The short version. The long one lives in what I call my legacy CV: everything I built before AI changed how I work. A different era, but the same foundations, with education, training and every role in detail.
Bringing AI into how clients build and test software: agentic workflows, self-healing CI pipelines and integrations that connect tools that never talked to each other. Before that, delivery across insurance, finance and retail.
My AI video studio: ads, music videos and show visuals, plus training, mentoring and games.
Joined after around two years working with Capgemini as a freelancer.
React Native and GraphQL, then promoted to run Quuppa-based projects as the link between business and developers.
Front-end development plus product owner and Scrum master roles, for clients in the UK, Switzerland, Spain and the US.
Turned product specifications into technical requirements for cross-functional teams.
Product development in international teams, and marketing sites for clients across Europe.
Joined as an early-stage startup; grew into team lead, handling recruitment, mentoring and best practices.
Web platforms, portals and front-end engineering, on-site with companies across three cities.
Clients & teams
Directly or through the agencies and consultancies I worked for: BBC, Mercedes-Benz, UBS, Zurich, Ergo, La Vanguardia, Bynder, RoosterMoney, NBN23, Zonyx and Flexxible.

Javier LopezBackend Engineer at AdevintaHappy to go as deep as you like: architecture, leadership, AI strategy, the messy reality of adoption. I don’t do take-home tests anymore, and I’ve written about why.
