Greater Madrid Metropolitan Area Spain
Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolJavier Pérez is an engineer-turned-business development manager with 13 years of experience bridging technical, environmental and financial disciplines across renewable energy and software ecosystems. Based in Greater Madrid, he combines hands-on systems and backend engineering—contributing to notable open-source projects like bpftrace, libbpfgo and Shopify’s shipit-engine—with project development and permitting of large-scale photovoltaic and agrivoltaics projects. His background in GIS, eBPF tooling and performance-sensitive code gives him a rare ability to translate low-level technical trade-offs into commercial and regulatory strategies. Trained in environmental engineering and bolstered by an MBA and finance studies, he excels at turning complex multidisciplinary requirements into executable, finance-ready projects. An unexpected thread through his career is a focus on robustness and edge cases: from fixing variadic-argument bugs in libbpfgo to ensuring symbolization and arm64 support in profiling infrastructure.
