Bio

I am a passionate database and software developer. “Serial” entrepreneur, after several unsuccessful ventures, I founded and work as the CEO of OnGres, a PostGres startup set to disrupt the database market. I have been dedicated to PostgreSQL and R&D in databases since two decades ago. In my heart, I am an open source advocate and developer. I am a well-known member of the PostgreSQL Community, to which I have contributed founding the non-profit Fundación PostgreSQL and the Spanish PostgreSQL User Group. You will find on this website a list of my open source (code) contributions, as well as my work for open source communities, like PostgreSQL. You can find me frequently speaking at PostgreSQL, database, cloud and/or Java conferences. Every year, I travel approximately three times around the globe. You can browse in this website the close to 100 talks that I have given in the last years. Hope that they are useful to you and the attendees who came to my talks. In 2019 I was acknowledged as a AWS Data Hero due to my constant efforts on sharing my knowledge, promoting PostgreSQL related issues publicity, and contributing to the Open Source community at a national and international scope.
