About me
I am a Computer Engineering graduate from the University of Vigo, specialized in cybersecurity, cryptography, and digital identity. I currently work as a Research Engineer at Gradiant, within the Security and Privacy Department, where I contribute to research and innovation-driven projects focused on secure and trustworthy digital systems.
My academic background includes both a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering and a Master’s degree in Cybersecurity. My Bachelor’s Thesis focused on the design and implementation of an immutable audit logging system for a production-grade certificate management platform, while my Master’s Thesis addressed the design and implementation of a Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI) system for Digital Product Passports on EBSI, aligned with emerging European standards.
From a technical perspective, my work spans applied cryptography, digital and decentralized identity, secure system architectures, and blockchain-based trust mechanisms. I have hands-on experience designing and implementing solutions involving PKI, HSM-backed key management, Distributed Ledger Technologies (DLT), Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs), and W3C Verifiable Credentials.
I primarily work with Java, Python, and Go, and I am particularly interested in building high-assurance, interoperable, and security-critical systems that address real-world challenges in areas such as industrial cybersecurity, digital trust, and regulatory compliance.
