About Me
Hello! My name is Luis and I’m a Software Engineer. My work is mainly focused on software development, both front-end and back-end. However, I’m eager to work in any kind of project. I have worked at a couple of companies improving my teamwork and knowledge. Still, I keep learning everyday.
I am most skilled in: Java , .Net and listening to music
Projects
Your people's safety and yours comes first.
GeoGuardian is an Android app designed to monitor users movements, in order to send a notification to a person or persons of your trust if an unexpected event happens during that time.
This app enables the users to create routes so they can arrive to their destination and also allows them to create safe and danger zones. In any case, the app will send notifications if the users don’t get to their destination, they go out of safe zones or they go inside danger zones.
It is especially designed for unsupervised children, people with demetia or impairment, transporters of valuables goods or people who want to feel safer when traveling through unstrusted areas or roads.
This was a team project, during my MSc. This app was made by 6 students (including myself), as an assignment.
Basic project of information retrieval.
‘Explain like I’m 5’ is a web app created to crawl the subreddit Explain Like I’m Five, to analyze the information in the web and proccess it. Once done that, it allows to perform searches based on information retrieval techniques.
This was a team project, during my MSc. This app was made by a classmate and I, as an assignment.

BSc final degree project.
MusicCommunity is an app where you can store your music sheets and also allows you to get in touch with people with your same interests.
This web application allows you to open friendly discussions about certain topics, organize events, comment other people’s work and create advertisements.
Experience
Developing in multiple projects with Java and .Net.
Working while attending to MSc classes. Currently developing my MSc project.
Starting this time with a little bit of experience and ready to learn at the same time. This enthusiasm allowed me to catch up with the development of the current projects in this company. Grateful to have this chance and getting to learn another set of skills, technologies and methodologies.
Agile software development with Scrum, while coding in .Net and React.
Working for the first time while I was finishing my final BSc project simultaneously.
Starting here gave me a taste of the real world, where I was able to learn new methodologies, new technologies and so far and so forth. I got lucky to work hand in hand with a very capable team: from developers to QA testers and UI/UX designers. I cherish this first opportunity to have a glance of the real world.
