Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolCarlos Granados is a Senior Fullstack Developer and tech leader with over 30 years in software engineering and more than two decades building and directing high-performance teams. He specializes in modernizing legacy PHP/Symfony systems, scaling platforms for hundreds of thousands of users, and instituting robust CI/CD and automated testing pipelines that materially improve delivery and reliability. Carlos has led teams from small startups to 20-engineer organizations, driving major upgrades (Symfony 3 → 7, PHP 7.2 → 8.3), architecture redesigns, and SRE-led stability initiatives. A recognized Symfony expert in Spain, he speaks at conferences, contributes to open source, and is known for diagnosing the complex, organization-stalling bugs others miss. His background founding and running product businesses gives him rare end-to-end insight—from infrastructure and code to operations, e-commerce, and go-to-market strategy. Based in Pontevedra, he blends hands-on development (PHP, Symfony, MySQL, Docker, Behat/Cypress) with pragmatic leadership to deliver performant, maintainable systems fast.
