Overview

As a Backend Developer with extensive programming experience since 2016, I specialize in building reliable and efficient systems. My expertise in Python, Rust, and Java enables me to develop scalable, high-performance systems from rapid prototypes and execute complex low-level optimizations. My professional background ensures the delivery of robust and high-quality solutions.

My primary programming stack consists of

EHU SDC

Bachelor's degree, Computer Science

2022 — 2026

My university was launched as the EHU EPAM School of Digital Engineering.

"The EHU/EPAM School of Digital Engineering is an experimental unit of EPAM, aimed at training bachelor's and master's degree students in partnership with traditional universities or new educational institutions."

Origin: the official EHU/ESDE website.

Over time, it smoothly transitioned into the EHU School of Digital Competences.
