Profile

Detail-obsessed engineering leader

Computer engineer with 23+ years of experience, the last 12 in technical leadership roles (IT Manager & Engineering Manager). I've led teams of up to 25 people, driven technical strategy, and bridged business goals with engineering execution.

Obsessive about detail, quality, and well-crafted systems — in code and in people growth.

Ebury

Working with José María was a turning point for me when he joined as a manager while I was still a newly arrived Associate Engineer. I really appreciated his pragmatic and no-nonsense approach.

He is exceptionally efficient and productive; he cuts straight to the point and focuses entirely on getting things done effectively and fast. He is approachable, refreshingly honest, and always speaks his mind to drive real progress, while remaining genuinely open to feedback to improve. A great asset for any fast-paced engineering team.

Leonardo Leiva Vinderola
Engineering Manager & Lead
Cocomore AG

He tenido la suerte de trabajar con Chema (José María) en Cocomore AG para Samsung y estaría encantado de volver a coincidir con él en otro proyecto.

Chema tiene un perfil mixto que no es sencillo de encontrar, por una parte es un gran profesional con un conocimiento técnico muy profundo y la experiencia que aporta el hacer los desarrollos de primera mano (Hands-on).
Por otra parte, es un gran Manager, siempre atento a los requerimientos del Cliente, como así también a lo que necesita el equipo, sus propuestas y ofreciendo soluciones innovadoras a escenarios complejos. Por último, Chema es un ser humano increíble que es capaz de generar un excelente ambiente donde trabajar y compartir, lo que genera una productiva inercia entre los equipos y deja de manifiesto su sólida inteligencia emocional.

Jose Maria Vazquez worked with us at GUS as a full stack architect. He was a huge key part of our journey to Azure DevOps, full CI/CD lifecycle across our vast number of corporate & marketing websites and digital assets.

Jose Maria is really a 'box to box' technical mind, with lots of experience not just in digital marketing but the whole lifecycle from an infrastructure point of view as well as best practice on developing a digital lifecycle atop modern cloud services and up to date technology. I would not hesitate at all in recommending Jose as he marries his vast skillset with strong leadership and mentoring qualities. He is a joy to work with.
