Freelance Scala/JVM Sw Engineer. @ Ignasi is a full-time scala developer on a test-first oriented team. Depending on the projects/client Ignasi may take the role of a PO or a team-member. Occasionally he will also provide architecture/code reviews to teams struggling with bottlenecks, legacy maintenance, etc... These are usually solved by covertly training some XP principles and ensuring the teams will adopt them.
