Hi! I’m Víctor Pérez Jiménez, aka @vpx_tech. I’ve always learned by doing things I probably shouldn’t have been able to do yet.
At eleven, I modified some sprites, maps and dialogs at Pokemon ROMs. At fifteen, I was flashing custom ROMs onto my Android phone: I bricked it, fixed it, and eventually cracked my own password… just to see if I could. That turned into teaching myself Java and Kotlin in university, shipping apps to Google Play, hitting #1 in category rankings, and winning the Huawei AppsUP Europe hackathon three times. By 24, the app I made from my bedroom took the stage at Huawei Connect in Paris, pitching in front of 800 people. Then I graduated.
At New Relic, I spent nearly three years running technical evaluations for enterprise accounts worth up to $400K. I designed telemetry pipelines, led POVs, handled RFPs for high-security accounts, and helped three AEs reach President’s Club. At RevenueCat, I was a Technical Account Manager for 20+ global enterprise accounts including Runna, FC Barcelona, and Naver Corp.
At MongoDB, I currently work as a Senior Solutions Engineer on the Industry Solutions team, designing and building end-to-end solutions for enterprise prospects across industries like Retail, Media, Telco, and Mobile. I take solutions from architecture and design through development, deployment, and documentation, and turn them into demos, workshops, and technical content.
In parallel, I’m building qrew, a QR table ordering platform on Supabase which is about to launch to help Spanish restaurants modernize. I also enjoy finding, and sometimes disclosing, security vulnerabilities in production systems, as well as creating technical content at @vpx_tech. When I finally get some time off, I coordinate the Google Developer Group in Lleida and mentor for Google Summer of Code.
I speak Spanish, Catalan, English, German, and French. I’m learning Mandarin. Seems I like hard problems, but what’s life without a bit of action?
