Senior🎓
Top SchoolXavier Martinez-hidalgo is a Senior Software Engineer with 17 years of experience building and scaling systems from microcontroller firmware to large web platforms. Based in Barcelona, he blends deep backend and distributed systems expertise (notably Python and infrastructure management) with hands-on SRE and platform leadership across startups and large organizations like Facebook. He has led teams, migrations to cloud, capacity planning and high-throughput services (including an email alert system handling hundreds of millions of messages per month) while improving monitoring, automation, and release processes. His background in physics and early work on embedded systems gives him a pragmatic systems-thinking approach and comfort across hardware and software boundaries. Naturally drawn to mentoring and process improvement, he often shapes teams as much as architectures, turning operational insight into long-lived, scalable solutions.
