Engineering Leadership
About me
I'm Hernán Magrini, Head of Engineering in Berlin. I empower engineering teams to tackle complex challenges through autonomous decision-making and scalable solutions that drive meaningful impact.
With over a decade of experience leading engineering teams across diverse industries, I've distilled my approach into four core principles that guide every decision I make:
User First: Every technical decision starts with user impact. I champion solutions that genuinely serve user needs, not just technical elegance.
Humility: I lead by listening. The best ideas can come from anywhere, and I actively seek feedback to continuously evolve as a leader.
Respect: I invest in people's growth and celebrate their wins. Great teams are built on psychological safety and genuine appreciation for diverse perspectives.
Trust: I empower teams with autonomy and ownership. When you trust people to make decisions, they rise to the challenge and deliver exceptional results.
