I am a software engineer with rational and evidence-based thinking. I have expertise in certain subjects and broad knowledge of the various strands of computer science. That gives me the ability to easily learn and master new subjects. I put the best of myself in my work and I work well both autonomously and in team. I aim for optimal solutions, working methodically to achieve them and employing best practices. Still, I balance decisions with practical aspects, measuring success by actual results and avoiding over-engineering. I trust my capabilities but I also have a clear notion that there is always space to keep evolving – and that is one of my main motivations.
