20+ years of experience · React, TypeScript, React Native, Next.js · Remote from Madrid, Spain

I'm a senior full stack developer, but writing code has never been the whole story for me.

I've been a creative director at advertising agencies, working with brands like Ikea, Vueling, BMW and Zara. I also founded page64.press and was its CTO, with clients like La Vanguardia, Prisa and Bauer Media. These days I build my own apps and get my hands into everything: the idea, the name, the brand, the website and, of course, the code.

What I enjoy most is taking an idea, giving it shape and watching it grow. Picturing what it could become and getting down to building it, without pulling product, design and technology apart. That's also what I bring to startups that are just getting started.

With AI, it's easier for me to connect all those pieces and spend more time on what really matters: deciding what's worth building.

That way of working is what I call being a Software Gardener.

What about AI?

My current way of working is based on spec-driven development, an approach where you first write a detailed specification of what you're going to build, in structured, orderly natural language, and only then write the code.

How I work today
