Software engineer with a solid background and experience (+15 years) building high performance teams in multicultural and cross functional environments. The trick? Provide them an environment where they can do their best through guidelines, support, respect and trust.Agile enthusiast looking for improvements in the ways of working, willing to experiment and have fun while deliver value. I really believe that the success of high performance teams rests on 3 pillars: business focus, people engagement and predictability.By working on complex Tech/product challenges, I have had the opportunity to put in practice (along with the teams) different approaches and dev practices while learning new tools and business domains.
