Mario Fernandez

lead developer

I develop software for a living. Then I go home and I continue reading about software, because I just cannot get enough.

 

At some point somebody thought it was a good idea to make me the technical lead of an agile team. I quickly discovered that building things yourself is not the same as helping somebody else figure it out.

 

I learned, somewhat to my surprise, that I really enjoy sharing ideas. According to their feedback, other developers have managed to learn something from me. At least they don't tend to run away screaming, which is, I think, a good thing.

 

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.
