Founder @ HappyAndroids · CTO @ Codefriends · IT consulting & product development from Málaga, Spain 🇪🇸
For 20+ years I've been building software — from robust Python backends to cloud infrastructure with Docker, AWS and Kubernetes. Currently focused on my own products, AI, and building Solera Linux, an immutable and atomic distribution centered on digital sovereignty.
My first piece of software was a pretty ugly little game written in Pascal... and at 18 I ended up working in the Spanish video game industry, on Blade: The Edge of Darkness.
