- I worked on two diagnosis & maintenance projects developed under the Thales Ground Transportation Systems business unit.
- The main idea of these solutions was to have a central diagnosis and maintenance system that gathers input from field elements present in train stations. The next step is to interpret it and transform it into diagnoses and alarms that appear on a screen and, then, a maintainer can act accordingly: check the element, send certain commands, collect logs, etc.
- Our projects were developed using microservice-based architectures. We've faced a lot of challenges like: security, communication protocols between services, trying to keep the complexity at minimum and follow the SRP as much as possible.
- I've been involved in the development of new services that served new requirements and integrations with our client's systems. This includes implementations of very specific interfaces and low level communication protocols between our apps and field elements. Besides new functionalities, I've also maintained and revised old solutions and refactored code when needed.
- Acquired skills and competencies: PostgreSQL, Networking, Bash, Jira, Maven, Jenkins, VLAN, spring security, bitbucket, amqp, rabbitmq, spring data, Linux (CentOS), docker, kubernetes, Spring Boot, Spring Cloud, Java 11, Java 21

- I was part of the RAS (Reliability, Availability, Serviceability) team for Lenovo's XClarity Administrator devices management solution.
- I was in charge with the enhancements of existing functionalities, defects fixing and various components redesign. Since each new release was targeted to manipulate higher data volumes and to execute multiple tasks in parallel, I worked to improve and optimize the existing APIs (working a lot with legacy code) and the database performance.
