About Iván

I am a data manager and architect with over 8 years of experience building scalable data platforms and leading international teams in enterprise environments.

I have worked at companies such as AstraZeneca, ISDIN, IAG, and Penguin Random House, leading initiatives in architecture, data governance, cloud modernization, and technology strategy.
My profile combines business vision, technical leadership, and hands-on execution capabilities.

I specialize in designing modern data ecosystems on AWS, Azure, and GCP, using technologies like Snowflake, BigQuery, Python, Airflow, dbt, and architectures based on APIs and microservices.

Throughout my career, I have helped organizations to:
- Scale global data platforms
- Improve data quality and governance
- Reduce cloud costs and optimize performance
- Design robust and maintainable architectures
- Lead technical teams and align technology with business

I am involved in both strategic and technical execution, acting as a bridge between business, product, and engineering to transform complex needs into real and sustainable solutions.
