As a engineer, his knowledge, technical skills and dedication helped him to execute his projects successfully. As a Manager of the Professional Services department he has always looked for the best solution to solve the problems and motivate the people of his team. He would be a great choice if you need a technical leader in your team.

Jordi is for me an excellent professional and a perfect co-worker and you can count on him to solve problems that always appear when you manage so many people into the so complex role of the Manager for the Professional Services team in a services Company. Very enthusiastic but also rationalist to keep calm and don't complicate situations but trying to solve them. Good choice to have Jordi in you team.
