• Jordi Corbilla

    Sr. Software Engineer at VR Capital Group

     

    I am a team worker who loves learning from interaction and by listening to people's experiences. I am also capable of working in an independent manner and empathetic with very high communication skills. I have no fear to communicate honestly and always open to feedback. I consider myself very sociable, helpful, open-minded and respectful. I am enthusiastic and hard-working with over 12 years of experience as a Software Engineer in a wide range of business and industries with a very stable career history.

    I consider myself a problem solver, and I have the ability to get things to work. Having a keen eye on quality, architecture and risks this lets me build good software. Right now working for Broadrigde I am focused on several cutting-edge projects trying to push forward the leading products in the financial sector.

    Over the last year I have been involved in learning how the human brain works and how we can get the most out of it. Getting the Pragmatic Thinking and Learning Certificate helped me to improve my abilities and with that knowledge I have helped others to grow professionally.

    Now I am interested in framework platforms, .NET, Web development, Delphi, Continuous integration, Continuous delivery, learning new programming languages and new technologies.

    Software development happens in your head - not in an editor, IDE, or design tool. We're well educated on how to work with software and hardware, but what about wetware, our brains? look at how the brain really works (hint: it's a dual processor, shared bus design) and how to use the best tool for the job by learning to think differently about thinking.
