Senior Technologist with 25+ years of experience leading tech departments, building scalable systems, and managing infrastructure teams.
Summary
Passionate about organizational design, cloud architecture, and distributed systems. At Spotify, I founded the Site Reliability Engineering department and grew it from 5 people to hundreds. Led the migration of 15,000+ physical servers to Google Cloud and prepared the tech stack for Spotify to go public. Deeply involved in technical due diligence processes for acquisitions and compliance with data protection regulations.
Expert in scalability and architecture, having designed systems that process billions of events daily while balancing performance, security, and developer productivity.
Entrepreneur at heart — founded and ran my own ISP for 7+ years as technical lead, managing director, and systems architect. Currently CEO at All Tuner Labs, building technology solutions with a philosophy of simplicity.
I mentor emerging tech leaders and co-host two tech podcasts: 2048 enllà and Entre Dev y Ops.
