Victor is the Head of Engineering at HER App! Victor has been coding since he was a pre-teen. He has been a technology enthusiast since he can remember, which pushed him to learn, try, build and ultimately pursue Computer Science as a profession, something that coupled with the fact that Spain at the time wasn’t the best market for it, ultimately leading him to leave Zaragoza (hometown) for the lively Dublin first, the Netherlands after and, finally landed in the UK where he has been the last 6 years. He has spent the last 17 years working on IT and the last 6 supporting other engineers as a leader. He loves building stuff and in the last years, discovered that building processes, teams and groups of people to work towards a common goal is as satisfactory as building a CDN (which he has done).
