Federico León

My name is Fede and I'm a Software Engineer from Córdoba, Argentina. I work in IT since 2004, you can always reach me in LinkedIn to see more about me. My day-time job is basically analysis, design and development of real-time and high-performance microservices.

Since I have a lot of experience in these topics and I'm always learning new ways of teaching these new concepts, I can ensure that you'll get the most of them: because I love what I do, because I'm not a fake, because I work with these topics on daily basis I can bet my name on what I know and because I have all of these concepts so deep in my head that I can share them without forcing the process. You will learn a lot, I will learn a lot and we're going to enjoy the journey.
