About

PROGRAM
I created a mentoring program based on the book "Agile Technical Practices" I coauthored.

https://github.com/pedromsantos/AGILE-TECHICAL-PRACTICES-mentoring-program

I have run this program for 9 years with hundreds of software engineers across several organizations, including ASOS, Vistaprint, Moonpig, Societe Generale, Voxel, Wallapop, and Lifull Connect.

BIO

I've focused on mentoring and inspiring other developers; I spent hundreds of hours doing pairing and mobbing sessions, coaching and tutoring developers at all proficiency levels, and working with them on everything from programming basics to object-oriented design principles, refactoring legacy applications, pragmatic testing practices, architecture decisions, and career development choices.

After running the program behind closed doors and working on several iterations of improvements, I'm offering it publicly and elected Mentor Cruise as the platform to deliver it.

This is your opportunity to join this mentoring program that is proven in the trenches of software development.
