I help organisations make better decisions through data, analytics, modelling and intelligent systems. My work focuses on understanding business problems, designing practical solutions and implementing systems that improve visibility, planning, efficiency and decision-making. I believe technology should serve the decision, not the other way around. Over the years I have worked across data engineering, analytics, forecasting, optimisation, machine learning and software development. Rather than treating these as separate disciplines, I use them as tools that can be combined depending on the context and objectives of each project. I typically work on projects involving: • Decision support systems and business intelligence solutions. • Data architecture, databases and analytical infrastructure. • Forecasting and scenario analysis for planning and operations. • Optimisation and resource allocation problems. • Process automation and operational efficiency. • Machine learning and AI applications when they create measurable business value. • Custom analytical tools that help teams understand, evaluate and act with greater confidence. My approach is strongly business-oriented. Before discussing technology, I try to understand the context, constraints and decisions that actually matter. The goal is not to build the most sophisticated system possible, but the simplest solution capable of creating meaningful and lasting value. I enjoy working closely with clients, challenging assumptions, exploring alternatives and translating complex situations into clear, actionable decisions. I work fluently in English, Spanish and Catalan and have experience collaborating with international teams across analytical, technical and operational environments. If you are looking for someone who combines analytical rigour, technical capability and a genuine interest in understanding your business, I would be happy to discuss your project.
