Javier Arias

Sr. Software Engineer, Spotify

Javier Arias Losada is a senior software engineer at Spotify working in the core infrastructure area.

In technology matters, transitioned from a fashion victim, jumping to anything trendy or interesting to a more pragmatic getting-things-done attitude, valuing more the challenges than the tools. Might it be the age?

Loves traveling and always moves around using his beloved-old bike. A father of two, who enjoys investing time with friends and family.
