# Roberto Burgos

> Software Engineer at Swiftly, Inc.

Location: Oakland, California, United States
Profile: https://flows.cv/robertoburgos

I'm a Java software engineer with a passion for Android development, and a strong interest in functional programming, language implementation, learning tools and mobile audio applications.

I'm also a musician and producer with over 20 years of experience writing, mixing, remixing, and producing music for my former band, and other well known local and international indie musicians.

As a technology junkie, I'm always looking to learn new languages, libraries, frameworks, and tools that will allow me to always be ahead of the game, much in the same way that I'm always looking for new audio production techniques to implement in music production. Due to my insatiable desire to learn, I embrace changes in the tools I employ and in the way I do things.
