Husband | Father to 4 | 4X CMO | Author | Revenue Executive | Podcast Host | Speaker
I am an unconventional person. A data geek that loves to help businesses thrive. A nerdy dad that loves sports and Star Wars.
I really just want the world to be a bit kinder to one another.
I am the Product Manager at Microsoft Bing managing teams discovering, selecting, crawling, and processing the whole web to maximize Bing Search Index freshness and comprehensiveness. Everyday dozens of billions of new webpages appear on the internet, and hundreds of billions of pages are refreshed with new content. Handling this scale is a fascinating task. My fast-moving teams leverage a massive platform, top of the art machine learning stack and inputs from webmasters via Bing Webmaster Tools.
At the age of 8, I got my first personal computer, a gift from my father: An old 386 PC. I started playing around with MS-DOS and Windows 3.11. The first time I formatted my computer and re-installed all the apps, I felt like a hacker.
In high school, I studied informatics. That was my first approach to software development. I learned how to code using Visual Basic 6. I put this knowledge into practice when I got together with some friends to create games and apps. In the meantime, I spent my time doing other things that I still love doing: Listening to music, meeting new people, going to concerts, and discussing about movies and TV shows.
I started studying at university when I was 18. That was when I got my first real job: Software Developer in a consulting company. I started working with Visual Basic 6 and MS-SQL Server. A couple of years later I learned C# and started using .NET Framework.
I worked for several companies: Agencies, software factories, exchange offices, electricity distributors, insurance companies, assistance companies, financial investments firms, etc. I learned a lot, I worked a lot and I improved a lot as a professional.
As development isn't everything to me, I also enjoyed doing other activities: I played the bass guitar, learned French, started a personal blog with short stories, etc. I also participated in some radio shows.
After going through several experiences as a developer, for more than 12 years, I started to feel that I wanted to mix my development experience with other things that I also love doing: Meeting and engaging with other people, writing, creating things, and talking (a lot). In this search for ways to handle this idea, I discovered the world of Developer Relations. I met some great DevRel engineers, developer advocates, and other community members that helped me to learn about this "area" of the technology organizations, and the different tasks that a DevRel position involves. And all the dots started to connect.
I am now a remote Developer Relations Engineer at Storyblok. This job position makes me enjoy my everyday work, learn a lot of new things, and face new challenges. All of this helps me grow as a professional and as a person.
I am also one of the organizers of React Buenos Aires, the biggest React community in Argentina. We organize monthly events in different spots of the city, enjoying interesting talks and networking with people.
I'm an optimistic, enthusiastic, and hard-working person waiting to see what the future holds for my career.
