Pere Villega’s Summary

I have more than 6 years of experience as a Java developer, working in full cycle development of projects, with previous experience as trainee on the computer department of some companies. I have ability to get things done, good communication and presentation skills, experience working with clients and experience leading projects to a successful end. I’ve done technical training to co-workers and customers. I can design complex systems without losing focus on the business side of the project. During my career I’ve always become an important asset of the companies I was working in.

I’m Linux user and enthusiast of technology. My aim is to become an applications architect, so I’m looking for a job that allows me to grow professionally and learn to achieve that objective. To achieve it I spend a lot of time exploring new technologies and tools (like Git or Seam) and I always keep myself up to date on industry news.

Certifications: Sun Certified Java Programmer 6.0 (SCJP), Sun Certified Business Components Developer 5.0 (SCBCD). I’m currently studying for Sun Certified Web Components Developer 5.0.
