testimonial

Recommendations and what others say about me.

I have worked together with Matias in Web Dev, developing applications with .NET, Oracle and JS/HTML/CSS (mainly jquery and react). Matias is a fast learner and highly self-motivated and got productive quickly even without prior knowledge in a certain area. Apart from IT skills and knowledge in business processes, I was surprised how fast he got fluent in german. It was a pleasure to work with him.

Matias is a very brilliant programer with high level skills on software developing, project management and IT solutions. We used to work together for Shift Labor and we were mates at Pontificia Universidad Catolica de Chile reason why I know his great capabilities and skills. It was a pleasure to share my time working for Shift with him.

Blog

A Web page that serves as a publicly accessible personal journal for an individual. Typically updated daily, blogs often reflect the personality of the author.

The interesting tech scene in Chile

As I am currently an expat living in Europe I could not avoid to make comparisons of the current state of the tech industry in different places, and although Chile is not as developed as some other countries in the OECD there is a lot going on right now especially in the tech industry, and that is why AWS recently chose Santiago to open a new office during 2017, among many other tech giants that already have offices there.

My experience developing a Rails 5 API

I'm very passionate about Angular and I'm currently experimenting with it, indeed I wrote my personal blog in this relatively new JS framework with many new features over its predecessor. While I was developing I used the "in memory Web API" provided by Angular but at some point of the development I realized I needed a backend to support all of the data associated with blogs for example: posts, comments, users, etc.

Angular and Material Design - My experience

My first experience with Angular was when I took the free course from CodeSchool, this course was sponsored by none other than: Google. I really liked the idea of single page-applications. During these days I created a couple of web applications including a couple of MEAN stack courses which were very inspiring and useful.
