Testimonial

I had the pleasure of working with Alejandro some time in the same team. Everyone on the team were astonished at his proactivity, initiative and constant interest in solving problems of all kinds. His technical skills are amazing and varied fueled by the enthusiasm he puts into his day-to-day work. Any team that can count with him, will appreciate his knowledges quickly. He is a great person, charismatic, with great values, and striking good mood that makes every day working along with him is really a pleasure. I strongly recommend his work

I had an opportunity to work with Alejandro in a couple of projects. He has excellent technical skills, there is nothing he cannot do or resolve, and he is always up to date and looking for best technologies for the solution.
