Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolJuan Puente is a CTO and seasoned software engineer with 17 years of experience specializing in music technology, interactive systems, and modern C++ architecture. Based in Berlin, he has led reengineering efforts at Bronze to productize high-performance, scalable music platforms and built engineering teams to take them to market. As a consultant he helps companies adopt Value-Oriented Design and pragmatic functional programming in C++, and his open-source work on projects like immer (immutable data structures) and Mixxx (free DJ software) reflects deep expertise in performance, tooling and hardware integration. He combines hands-on implementation—controller mappings, radix-balanced tree optimizations, and test-suite modernizations—with product-minded UX collaboration from his Ableton tenure. Colleagues rely on him for mentorship in modern C++ and for turning research prototypes into production-ready systems that prioritize human-centered design.
