Hey there,

I’m Adrián, a backend engineer at Pleo.

I'm a pragmatic engineer with a taste for concise UX. I've partnered with teams at Bolt, Glovo, and now Pleo, shipping JVM services, payments, and tooling for product squads.

Track record covers microservices, data pipelines, infrastructure-as-code, and measured interfaces.
When not coding, you'll find me swimming and recording music at my home studio.
