Personal
Work
I’ve worked as a software engineer at Google (2010-2020) using machine learning, anomaly detection, spam and abuse fighting, data visualization, and UX skills.
Before that, I founded or cofounded three startups, I’ve worked as a security and tools engineer for a now-defunct IT company, and I’ve built many websites.
Besides building stuff, I have also helped/performance-coached/advised people both at Google and outside of Google.

Bio
I was born in the 1980s in Spain. As a teenager, I played D&D and video games, I learned how to program, and I channeled that desire to learn to over-engineer a Spanish gaming community that over the years gathered hundreds of active users and accumulated many many features.
After high school, I rebelled about formal education and started working. One thing led to another and a few years later I went to college, interned at CERN, studied in Japan and the US, and ended up joining Google to work on machine learning, spam and abuse fighting, and data visualization.
I’ve also been practicing and studying yoga and Vipassana meditation for several years and although I’m happy to be a “Yoga Alliance” certified teacher, I have only taught friends and family.
I have also been blogging since 2002.
