Bon dia! My name is Alex Orpinell and I am an engineer reskilled to Backend developer.

I was born in Barcelona, where I was raised and took my engineering degree. For the last academic year I was enticed to pursue my studies abroad so I took a double engineering degree program between UPC (Barcelona) and ENSAM (Bordeaux). Then I started off my work experience back in Barcelona with an automotive engineering company (MAZEL). A year later I decided to move to France again, this time Toulouse, to do an advanced master’s degree in aeronautical maintenance at ISAE Supaero. Then I had the chance to work for Airbus at the Saint Eloi pylons factory. At first I was a maintainability engineer as a subcontractor for a French company (Aeroconseil) for three years. Then I joined a Spanish supplier (ARITEX) to co-manage the design and implementation of the A330neo pylon assembly line. Two years later tough, I started missing my hometown and also the permanent travelling was taking its toll on my personal life. Thus, after some hard meditating and having spent over 6 years in France, I decided to quit my job, come back to my hometown, and re-think my career. I then started reskilling myself to software development and today I am a junior fullstack developer. I am always eager to level up my knowledge, build projects and try new ways.
