Nacho is a software engineer from Barcelona, fan of eXtreme Programming (XP) practices who has been working with Java and other web technologies before the Y2K. He had experience in different roles in the IT world ('guy-for-everything', developer, team lead, project manager and CTO) working in companies in many sectors: energy, e-commerce, startups (some unicorn) technology consultancy and application performance management. Now working as a Principal Software Engineer at Dynatrace developing software for monitoring applications and in 2022 became Java Champion.Always concerned with questions like "how does it work?" and "how can we make it better?", Nacho loves to share his knowledge with others and learn from them. As a natural progression to this attitude, he founded the Barcelona Java Users Group and co-founded the Barcelona Developers Conference (DevBcn).When he is not thinking about the next interesting thing to do for the community, he enjoys spending time with his family, playing sports or improving his TDD and other XP skills.
