Bringing Alex on continues the Drupal Association’s effort to become more global in our hiring.

For the past decade, he lived in London, working for big enterprise companies as a consultant and Technical Architect representing Acquia, Pantheon, The BBC, and Capgemini.
Additionally, Alex has a passion for journalism, communication, and marketing, which made him jump into a developer relations role during the past 12 months. At the Drupal Association, Alex works on the engineering team working on various projects. Considering himself a digital nomad, Alex lives between Madrid and his hometown near the Mediterranean Sea in Santa Pola. He enjoys anything related to the sea when in the Mediterranean, including windsurfing, kayaking, and sailing small dinghies.
When in Madrid, he swaps his passion for the sea with CrossFit and weightlifting! Recently, Alex got more into bodybuilding and healthy food habits, which made him lose around 15 kilograms in just a few months! He plans to promote healthy habits and exercise in the Drupal community as the biggest hack to improve productivity.
“Take care of your body. It’s the only place you have to live.” – Jim Rohn
