Summary

I am currently running Product and Engineering at MakeSpace in New York.

MakeSpace is convenient, simple, on-demand storage solution that takes the "self" out of "self storage." Our customers literally never have to visit a self-storage facility again without sacrificing knowing what they've put away. We build all of our technology in-house for our logistics and warehouse teams as well as all consumer facing apps.

I spent the past 6 years driving early stage startup teams as VP/CTO or running creative technology in a digital agency for EA Games, Nike, Air France KLM, etc. I have worked 18 months as a software engineer for Yahoo! Mobile, attended DreamIt Ventures accelerator 2012 program in New York. Built products focused on mobile experience at Lifesum and Tripl, for which both applications were featured by Apple multiple times.

I have worked with large data sets, built deep integrations to Facebook, Foursquare, etc. I have various extensive technical experience from owning and scaling solutions in Python, C++, PHP, together with MySQL, MongoDB, ElasticSearch. I have also re-structured, organized and built heterogeneous teams.

I have worked and lived in Paris, Stockholm, San Francisco, New York, London and shortly in Barcelona.
