👋 I’m Pep Rodeja, an aerospace engineer who codes. I live in the UK but grew up in Catalonia.

I've worked at Open Cosmos 🛰️ since completing my studies in Aerospace Engineering in Barcelona and Cranfiend. I started as an intern and got promoted several times until reaching Ground Segment Technical Lead 📡. I currently manage the software team that delivers on our mission desing, mission control, and data distribution products.

Some of my interests derive from my fascination for complex and well-engineered systems 🚉. At work, I love -trying to- architect reliable and observable microservices solutions on Kubernetes. And beyond software, I am interested in cities and their transport systems, and irrationably excited about in walkability and public transit.

While -so far- I've mostly remained in the high-level software world, I would love to learn more about electronics and low-level microcontrollers. So far, I've only dabbled into it through two of my hobbies: maintaining my smarthome and freestyle FPV drones.

You may want to read more about me on my website pep.rodeja.me. Hopefully, one day, I will publish a new blog posts about some random interesting topic.
