aka FunShot

TL;DR

17 years of experience in development, with a very wide area of expertise ranging from startups to big corporations, including leading and high-management positions (such as CTO).

I am knowledgeable in cloud computing, blockchains, and AI, thus keeping up with the top technologies.

I have very strong hard and technical skills from nature, as well as good soft skills that I have acquired through hard work. I also have a flexible mindset and the ability to learn quickly. These are only some of my positive attributes.
