Hello, I'm Cristian. I'm a Full Stack Mobile Developer specializing in React Native & Firebase. As the Lead Developer of Riov, I build scalable, AI-driven applications.
About me
I am a Full Stack Mobile Developer based in Sitges, Spain, specializing in building scalable, cross-platform applications. As the Lead Developer for Riov, I architect complete ecosystems from React Native frontend interfaces to serverless Firebase backends.
My unique background in professional kitchen management serves as my superpower in software engineering. Managing high-pressure culinary operations taught me how to architect highly efficient systems, optimize logistics, and build for zero-waste—principles I now apply directly to coding. I treat software architecture like a commercial kitchen: it requires flawless execution, precise data management down to the exact metric, and absolute reliability.
Whether integrating complex AI models or optimizing global state management, I thrive on solving real-world problems through clean, maintainable code.
