About José Luis

I am an agricultural engineer, specializing in Food Technology, with a background in Modern Languages and over twenty years of professional experience in translation, revision, and editing of texts in fields as diverse as information technology, the culinary sector, marketing, tourism, the business world, and technical and medical documentation. Throughout my career, I have worked with CAT tools and quality control software such as Xbench, I have developed glossaries and style guides, and I have performed both full and light MTPE for large-volume projects. I have collaborated with companies such as Google, Microsoft, Airbnb, Hopper, Booking.com, GE Healthcare, Elsevier, and the Carlos III Health Institute, in addition to participating in UX and UI adaptations, e-commerce campaigns, corporate documentation, technical manuals, and complex localization projects. My profile combines the technical precision of my engineering background with the linguistic sensitivity of an experienced translator, allowing me to deliver clear, natural, idiomatic texts adapted to each audience.
