Agile!

Since I have worked in both traditional and agile methodology projects, I can really say that I like to develop and deliver software rapidly.

Research

I like it

I really enjoy learning new -technologies, languages, tools, etc- that will help me fix the small details that are not allowing the whole system to work as expected.

More than developing

I really like to improve and automate processes, and experiment with new techniques and tools that increase team productivity or product performance
