“Cristian has been one of the best colleagues I had the pleasure to work with. I was his leader at etermax, and I must say that he not only excelled at the tasks I assigned to him, he was also very aware of possible issues that could arise and alert me about those with some possible solution for them. Since he joined the team, he learned a lot of different skills and put a lot of focus on improve daily, technically, and the processes of the team. He showed a clear improvement during his time at etermax and that shows me that he is a very valuable team member for any project. Thanks to not only his execution of tasks but also his level of organization and ownership of the product, I believe he is not only a great software engineering but could definitely be a great leader for any team. Thank you Cris for the time we worked together and hope to be able to work with you again soon!”

He proved to be an exceptional leader, not only because of his profound technical knowledge but also because he is a great person. His impressive ability to take on complex challenges and his willingness to learn or research whatever is necessary to move projects forward is admirable. For these reasons and more, I recommend Cristian Montalvo without reservations for any leadership or development role. I am confident that his impact will be more than positive in his next company and team!!!”
