Work
25+ years building and leading engineering organisations across SaaS platforms, AI-enabled operations and digital transformation.
CTO / CIO (Interim)
Jul 2023 – Present · BarcelonaCasa Batlló · Mesai · DICSA · Paladina · Sport Content Playbook
Since 2023 I have been working as a fractional and interim CTO and CIO. I have collaborated with companies, startups and organisations across very different sectors — culture, logistics, media, technology — at moments when they needed experienced technology leadership but did not have the structure to sustain it permanently.
The work varies by context, but it almost always has the same ingredients: bringing order to teams, defining where technology is going, introducing automation where it genuinely makes sense, and making sure engineering and business speak the same language.
Impact
faster delivery cycles
reduction in manual workload via AI
reduction in time-to-market
Global Chief Technology Officer
Nov 2018 – Jun 2023 · BarcelonaISPD Group — Global digital marketing and technology holding
Led technology strategy across multiple business units and international companies. My remit covered everything from engineering team integration and tooling standardisation to cloud infrastructure consolidation and governance across the group.
One of the most impactful initiatives was building an ML-driven automation layer for platform monitoring — reducing alert noise and freeing engineering capacity for product work. Also led the organisation through ISO 27001 and ENS certification processes, establishing a security and compliance baseline fit for enterprise clients.
Impact
monitoring processes automated via ML
reduction in IT operational costs
+ ENS certifications achieved
Chief Technology Officer
Nov 2009 – Nov 2018 · MadridAntevenio — Data-driven digital marketing SaaS
Nine years scaling a SaaS marketing platform from early growth to market leadership. I led an engineering, product and R&D organisation of 46 people across 7 countries and owned the full product stack: email, SMS, marketing automation and a real-time bidding platform.
Introduced Agile methodologies, CI/CD pipelines and automated testing as the engineering foundation that let us move fast without breaking things. Integrated CRM, ERP and internal systems across multiple geographies. Developed predictive ML models to optimise ad monetisation — one of which generated €1.2M in incremental revenue through eCPM uplift.
Impact
SaaS clients
annual email transactions
incremental revenue via ML
faster time-to-market
Project Manager
Jan 2004 – Oct 2009 · MadridAccenture Technology Solutions — Global consulting and technology services
Led distributed engineering teams across Spain and Morocco delivering large-scale enterprise systems for the retail and telecoms sectors: point-of-sale platforms, logistics backends, and complex multi-stakeholder integrations.
This is where I learned to coordinate delivery across time zones, cultures and competing priorities — and to speak the language of both business stakeholders and engineers in a way that actually moved things forward.

Led external development teams integrating marketplace, directory and CMS systems into a unified platform for the construction materials industry.
