Adrià Alcalà, software engineer and CTO
I've been building software for more than 15 years, since 2012. My background is in mathematics: I hold a BSc in Mathematics from the University of the Balearic Islands, an MSc in Mathematics and Computing from the University of Cantabria, and a PhD cum laude in Information and Communication Technologies from the University of the Balearic Islands, where I also taught.
I've worked on almost every side of a product: I set up the data team at hundredrooms and later led its engineering team, I was the lead backend engineer at Orbitalads, and since 2021 I've been the fractional CTO of CoinPanel. At Adriasoft Innovations I bring all of that together to offer what I do best: building complete products and making good technical decisions.
