My name is Juan Salado, and I was born in Seville, Spain. I am a passionate Software Engineer with a Bachelor's degree from the University of Seville. I currently work as a Software Engineer for Ayesa, using technologies such as Java and Spring Boot Framework.

My soft skills

I have great ability to manage my resources and my time. I have never needed to work for hours the night before an assignment to achieve my goals. A heavy workload should not harm our mental health as long as we have a good capacity for self-organization. Organizing my tasks in time, with margins reserved for setbacks, is the key that helps me build projects brick by brick.

I have very good skills to empathize with others. My writer's mind spends hundreds of hours imagining myself in the skin of other people, even if they are imaginary. This helps me always think about what could be behind another person's behavior before reacting against them. The key to good teamwork is communication and empathy.

Meditation and physical exercise help my mind stay clear and focused on what matters. We all have limited energy, and sometimes a focused mind is essential to distinguish what we should focus on that limited energy we have. No focusing our thoughts on past mistakes that can no longer be solved, or worries about threats with exaggeratedly low probabilities of occurring.

I am a very disciplined person, who enjoys receiving a long-term reward for a prolonged effort over time. Nothing gives me greater satisfaction than seeing the projects I have worked so hard on progress, or feeling my body improve after countless workouts.
