[ Luis Jimenez ]

I like understanding how systems work — all the way down. That curiosity has led me across the full stack, but what keeps me there is the product. I'm a product-first engineer: I care less about the tool and more about whether our work really solves the problem.

I'm most useful when there's a hard problem, a tight deadline, and not enough hands. I like teams where I can own something end-to-end, with high accountability for the good and the bad, and the opportunity to collaborate and learn from others.

Outside of code, I'm still drawn to challenges. After moving to Catalonia, I joined a colla castellera, picked up una mica de Català, and started running long-distance. I'm training for my first marathon next year.
