Summary
Jose Lucea is a founder and managing director with 11 years of experience building and leading B2B web development teams that convert designs into high-quality WordPress sites while helping offshore clients reduce operational costs. He combines hands-on full-stack development (PHP, CodeIgniter, WordPress, Java servlets, Hibernate, jQuery) with Agile Scrum project management and a track record of scaling delivery teams across outsourcing/offshoring engagements. Prior roles as CTO, R&D lead, and project manager reflect his ability to bridge product, technical strategy, and compliance—especially in healthcare IT where he worked with DICOM, HL7 and HIPAA-aligned systems. Based in Pasay, Philippines, he has repeatedly moved from hands-on engineering to leadership, running operations and technical direction at startups and service firms. He’s pragmatic about shipping production sites on competitive timelines while maintaining technical standards and client communication. An uncommon strength is his dual background in IT and sociology/anthropology, which informs team dynamics and client-focused process improvements.
