Enrique Martín Ocaña.

Software engineer · .NET & AI-agent tooling

Experience across Formula 1, fintech and entertainment. I build systems that make complex work more dependable.

Let’s talk

Everyone calls me Quique.

Experience

Illustrative models—not live telemetry or official employer artwork.

Selected projects

A few things I build to explore ideas beyond the day job.

SeeYouThereAPI

A .NET API for finding a shared, affordable destination for travellers from different origins.

.NET · API design · Resilience · Observability

Explore a local example

Different cities.
One place to meet.

A local example with sample fares. Choose where everyone starts.

Where are you travelling from?

Your common destination

Madrid

Group total

£250

LHR £105AGP £45GLA £100

Illustrative GBP fares—not live prices. This example runs locally.

Inside the API

A common destination is only the beginning. The API separates provider integrations from the domain logic, ranks shared destinations by group cost, and uses median individual cost as a tie-breaker.

  • Request validation and rate limiting at the boundary.
  • Caching and resilient HTTP clients for external data providers.
  • Correlation IDs, OpenTelemetry traces and metrics for observability.

Personal project. The API is not publicly hosted; the exhibit above illustrates the decision logic with sample data.

CrossPointer

Turn a photo into a printable cross-stitch pattern. Built around an older audience, with clear controls and English/Spanish output.

Python · FastAPI · Perceptual colour matching

Interface and approach
The real CrossPointer interface, with large photo-upload and language controls

Perceptual colour matching, isolated-stitch cleanup and an evaluation of alternative approaches sit behind a deliberately simple interface.

H-Orchestra

An early-stage experiment in giving long-running AI-agent harnesses explicit task state, responsibilities and verification.

TypeScript · Agent tooling · Early-stage personal project

The approach and current boundary

A leader selects one feature, an implementer writes code and tests, and a reviewer checks acceptance. The harness and initial infrastructure are in place; the full management application is still in development.

Curiosity doesn’t stop
at the keyboard.

I’m Enrique, or Quique. Originally from Málaga, I’ve been based in the UK since 2018.

I enjoy programming for its ability to bring ideas to life—and to make information and services more accessible. That curiosity also leads me into photography, videography, hiking and exploring the outdoors.

My dissertation explored an AI-powered language tool for primary education. Today, personal projects give me room to keep learning, test ideas and build tools around real needs.
