I have been managing Ricard for almost 2 years at Goin. It has been a real pleasure to work with such a dedicated and enthusiastic person and professional. I really learned a lot from him: from his deep technical skills to his ability to adaptively communicate to stakeholders.

During this time Ricard has been leading initiatives in data ETLs, building data pipelines from scratch and a data API that is being used by our Product team to improve the experience of our users in the app. I thank him for that, recommend working with him to anyone interested and remain excited to see what he does in the future!
