Methodical by nature — I care about how software is built as much as what it does.

I gravitate toward backend, systems architecture, and production-grade infrastructure. On the product side I think a lot about efficiency and accessibility — building tools that fit the people using them, as far from generic software as possible.

Currently building production-grade AI products at Zaltor. zaltor.com zaltor.com Zaltor — Software Distribution Servicios Gestionados, Ciberseguridad, Backup y MSP.

Work

Where I’ve spent my time.

Junior Software Engineer · Zaltor
Jul. 2026 – Present

Spain, Full-time

Following the internship, continued at Zaltor full-time to take the work further. Leading the development, design, and deployment of multiple AI products: some internal, some public-facing. The stack includes React and Astro on the frontend, paired with backend services and deployment pipelines. Still shipping features, maintaining production systems, and iterating fast — all while keeping the architecture clean and reliable.

Software Developer Intern · Zaltor
Feb. 2026 – Jun. 2026

Spain, Internship

Led the end-to-end development of the company's corporate document intranet — from initial design and architecture decisions through production deployment. Built the backend with Hono and SQLite, and the frontend interface with Astro and Svelte, keeping the stack lightweight. Also designed a Markdown-based RAG engine from scratch to give the company's internal AI assistant up-to-date knowledge about internal documentation.
