Workout app(personal project): https://elgainz.com/

Full-stack software engineer (back-end leaning) with ~3 years of professional experience building web applications at an e-commerce Saas start-up. Most of my work has been in Python(Django), PostgreSQL and API integrations, with experience building end-to-end features across the stack. I enjoy working on data processing, backend architecture, automation and product-focused engineering in small teams where I can have ownership over what I build. I also like to work on personal projects outside of work, my most recent one being a workout tracker app where currently I am working on integrating an AI assistant that would help users with managing workouts and programs.

Looking for remote-first or relocation opportunities in Europe, particularly backend or balanced full-stack roles.

Senior Full-Stack & Mobile Developer, 10+ years, leading a small team as Tech Lead at NTT DATA on a Spring Boot 3 / Angular 17 enterprise platform for a Spain-based client. My background covers both ends genuinely, not superficially — 6 years at Implemental Systems shipping Java/Spring Boot + Kotlin/Android GIS systems for telecom, utilities, and airport operations (rebuilt a core airport-ops module with a 3-person team, +45% performance), plus freelance work spanning Flutter e-commerce (Shopify GraphQL integration) and a Spring Boot + PostGIS + Kotlin field-data GIS platform with offline-first sync.

I end up doing full-stack more often than not simply because few teams I've worked with have anyone who knows mobile — so backend, frontend, and mobile depth all grew together out of necessity rather than by design.

Looking for senior/architect-level roles, EU-remote or Spain-based, full-time or contract.

Software engineer with a focus on full-stack/backend development and AI-powered products. I've built and deployed SaaS products and developer tools using TypeScript/Next.js and Python/FastAPI, including a GitHub App for automated PR review and risk analysis, AI research tooling, and marketplace/web applications.

I'm particularly interested in early-stage startups and small engineering teams where I can take ownership of features end-to-end, work close to the product, and contribute beyond just writing tickets.

Open to full-time or contract opportunities.
