I’m passionate about technology since childhood, from consumer electronics to enterprise hardware/software and everything in between.

Following this passion, I pursued an education focused on scientific and technical fields, becoming an IT Engineer at the end of my academic career.
I often spend my free time trying to learn something new and be up to date on the topics in my interest, allowing me to maintain and develop my skillset.

Thanks to study and international experiences with customers and employers (in USA, Canada, France, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, etc..) and mentors, I’ve developed a transversal knowledge that involves both the elements of an architecture and how to exploit it in order to give to the business the value that needs.

My strong suite is architecting data solutions, from relational DBs to AI applications: I like to know my tech stack from top to bottom, you can't ignore the hardware in the same way you can't ignore the business requirements.

On the job I usually find myself being the go-to guy that both senior and junior employees approach to tackle particularly tricky issues or asking for advice
I appreciate whenever this happens as I’m stimulated by new problems to solve and I enjoy sharing my knowledge to empower others

Born in Madrid around 30 years ago, Guillermo studied Electronics and Automation Engineering, only to discover after a couple of years at work that what really drives him is working with people. He started as a Software Developer, discovered the Agile world, and quickly became a fan of it — transitioning into a Scrum Master role and learning a lot about agile working and collaboration, always with an eye on increasing productivity and improving the relationships between developers.
These days, Guillermo has traded sprint boards for a new obsession: figuring out what actually makes developers' lives better. At PAYBACK GmbH, he digs into surveys, metrics, and honest conversations to find out where the friction really is — then goes after it by making Developer Experience a real priority, not an afterthought. He's convinced that happy, productive developers are the secret sauce for a successful organization.
