Former Manager at Lithic Tech
"I hired Ernesto as an intern, and then into a full time role. He took all his work seriously and aimed to learn and excel in everything he took on, which was extremely varied. He wasn't afraid to take and argue strong opinions, even early in his career, which I appreciated. Ernesto also seemed to quickly understand and internalize the importance of unit testing and high-quality code construction. He was a pleasure to work with.
