Maria Valero

Senior Developer Consultant

I joined Thoughtworks in Barcelona in 2021 as a Senior Developer

I have learned a lot in the past year, mostly from working with an amazing team composed by people with many different backgrounds

Six months after I joined the team, I got the opportunity to become the tech lead. Not only did I get lots of support for my new role from my teammates, but I also got the chance to be part of an internal training course with great speakers.

 

I am passionate about LGTBIQ+ community. This year, for the lesbian visibility day, I organised a talk with La Fundacion Triangulo. We learned differences between sex, gender identity, gender expression and sexual orientation and discuss the about how cultures typically mix up all this concepts together as if it was only one or two.

 

I live in Granada, a city with great tapas and amazing views of The Alhambra.

Thoughtworks acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the land where we work and live, and their continued connection to Country. We pay our respects to Elders past and present. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples were the world's first scientists, technologists, engineers and mathematicians. We celebrate the stories, culture and traditions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Elders of all communities who also work and live on this land. 

 

As a company, we invite Thoughtworkers to be actively engaged in advancing reconciliation and strengthen their solidarity with the First Peoples of Australia. Since 2019, we have been working with Reconciliation Australia to formalize our commitment and take meaningful action to advance reconciliation. We invite you to review our Reconciliation Action Plan.
