On the academic front, José has been a tenured professor at the Polytechnic University of Valencia (UPV) since 1989. While at UPV he founded the Instituto Tecnológico de Informática (ITI-Computer Technology Institute), a leading ITC technology center in Spain.

Always motivated by the problem of reducing the complexity of programming and managing distributed systems, he founded Kumori Systems in 2014, as a Spin-off of the Politechnic University of Valencia.

Today, what started as a university spin-off, is a company whose technology has reached the market, being used by large corporate clients that rely on Kumori’s platform for their day to day critical business needs.
