I’m a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Instituto de Astrofísica de Andalucía (IAA-CSIC), working at the intersection of
radio astronomy, data-intensive science, cloud computing, and semantic technologies.

My work focuses on scalable scientific infrastructures, HI data analysis, and end-to-end workflows for next-generation astronomy projects such as the SKA Regional Centre Network (SRCNet).

⚡ Fun fact
I enjoy working at both extremes: from petabyte-scale scientific infrastructures down to bare-metal programming on 1980s hardware.
