Question: How did you get into the programmatic industry?

Answer: By coincidence. I had little experience as a developer and I was looking for a new job. Not looking specifically in this industry, but I ended up here.

Q: What is the best part of being a Team Leader?

A: The greatest thing about leading a team is that, if you are able to manage it successfully, you can do greater things than you would ever do on your own. It’s really challenging for me and I am always looking for new methods to perform better as a unit.

Q: Could you list some leadership tips?

A: For me the most important are:

• Listen to your team
• Create an environment where they feel motivated and safe at the same time
• Trust your team. If you can’t trust them, it is because you have not shared all your knowledge with them. Share everything so you can trust them completely.
• Don’t expect everything to be done as you would have done it. Different paths can lead to the same outcome.

Q: How do you motivate your team to achieve the best results?

A: By creating a united team. When you work or play for a cohesive team, you just want the best results for it.

Q: Tell us about a successful result achieved as a team and how did you get it.

A: We have built a whole new system to centralize in our dashboard all the stats and revenues that were being generated by us on external platforms.
It was accomplished through good planning, hard work, a lot of meetings, good communication, and cooperation between all the team members.

Q: What do you expect from the future of the industry? What needs to be improved from a technology standpoint?

A: The trend is about giving more and more privacy to users. In a few years, the industry will have to work without knowing any details about users. I think AIs will take a key role in this scenario.

Q: Do you have any idea how many emails you send per day?

A: Just a few. I receive many more than I write, mostly from automatic processes. They are important to know everything is working fine.

Q: What is the app you use the most in your daily life?

A: Google Meet. 🙂

Q: What is the first thing you do when you get home and disconnect from work?

A: I actually work from home, so it’s a bit different in my case. Luckily, when I turn off my laptop I automatically forget about work. Also, sports help me to disconnect. I usually go for a run or go playing football or padel.

Q: What would you do if you won the lottery?

A: I would buy a house, invest a part, spend the other part with family and friends and I would go for a big trip with what’s left. I may need a one-year leave of absence to do the trip 🙂 .
