After gaining academic and real-world experience in software coding and development, he realized that he wanted to take this passion one step further by adding business skills to his resume. This desire led him to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/school-science-technology\/programs\/master-in-computer-science-and-business-technology\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Master in Computer Science &amp; Business Technology<\/a> at IE University, a disruptive program that teaches students how to bridge the gap between business and tech. The result is a highly in-demand set of skills that any well-rounded professional can use to navigate the ever-changing biztech world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A technical start<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Borja, \u201c99% of businesses today wouldn\u2019t be able to operate without technology.\u201d The fact that tech powers almost everything nowadays is one of the main reasons why he chose to pursue his Bachelor in Computer Engineering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Borja completed several internships in the course of his undergraduate program before joining Accenture, where he held a full-time position as a computer engineer for one year. Though he liked the challenge of complex coding, he was unsatisfied: his role didn\u2019t allow for any direct interaction with customers, nor did he have the chance to participate in the planning phase or come up with requirements for products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI realized that perhaps I was lacking the tools to be able to work in a different position that was more customer-facing,\u201d he says. While his bachelor\u2019s degree and work experience gave him a solid foundation in various technology tools, it didn\u2019t teach him how to apply his knowledge to business operations or strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Expanding his skill set<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>So Borja went on a search to find the nexus between business and tech, determined to learn more than just software. He wanted to become skilled in new technologies such as cloud computing, big data, IoT or ML (machine learning)\u2014something he wasn\u2019t exposed to during his bachelor\u2019s degree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While conducting his research online, he came across IE University\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/school-science-technology\/programs\/master-in-computer-science-and-business-technology\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Master in Computer Science &amp; Business Technology<\/a> and soon discovered it was exactly what he was looking for. What&#8217;s more, he had plenty of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/staying-ahead-of-tech-8-reasons-to-study-a-master-in-computer-science-and-business-technology\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">reasons to consider studying<\/a> this disruptive program. \u201cOn one hand, it teaches you the knowledge needed to start a career in cloud engineering, machine learning or data analytics,\u201d says Borja. \u201cOn the other, it combines these lessons with presentation skills and more business-oriented topics.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Delving into biztech<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>When he first started his Master in Computer Science &amp; Business Technology, Borja didn\u2019t quite know exactly what he was looking for in terms of his ideal role. It was only during his third term in the program when he took a course on cloud computing\u2014which he knew nothing about before\u2014that he realized he was really interested in the field. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Borja says that, for him, the most valuable part of the program was the hands-on skills he gained through doing case studies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns left-image is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"we-re-proud-of-our-dynamic-program-alumni-who-have-landed-roles-that-earn-them-an-average-annual-salary-of-37-209\"><em>\u201cI was able to learn from real businesses and understand not only the product that they offer to their customers but also how they operate.\u201d<\/em><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"740\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/From-IE-University-to-Amazon-How-a-Master-in-Computer-Science-and-Business-Technology-can-help-shape-a-biztech-career1.jpg\" alt=\"From IE University to Amazon: How a Master in Computer Science &amp; Business Technology can help shape a biztech career\" class=\"wp-image-30635\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/From-IE-University-to-Amazon-How-a-Master-in-Computer-Science-and-Business-Technology-can-help-shape-a-biztech-career1.jpg 740w, https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/From-IE-University-to-Amazon-How-a-Master-in-Computer-Science-and-Business-Technology-can-help-shape-a-biztech-career1-300x195.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/From-IE-University-to-Amazon-How-a-Master-in-Computer-Science-and-Business-Technology-can-help-shape-a-biztech-career1-150x97.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/From-IE-University-to-Amazon-How-a-Master-in-Computer-Science-and-Business-Technology-can-help-shape-a-biztech-career1-585x379.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Kicking off a new career at AWS<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>During the program, Borja started the selection process to join Amazon Web Services (AWS).

As a specialist in <em>compute<\/em>\u2014as opposed to <em>analytics<\/em> or <em>machine learning<\/em>\u2014he helps them reduce the cost of their workloads while building their flexibility and overall resiliency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A passion for his work<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>What Borja likes the most about his work is that every day presents a new challenge that only serves to broaden his knowledge and expertise. Most of his customers approach him with problems he\u2019s never seen before. He then has to engage in deep learning about the relevant technology in order to present them with viable solutions. \u201cIt requires an understanding of not only AWS services but also various open-source tools that customers might be using and integrating with those services,\u201d he explains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Borja recommends that any student who\u2019d like to take on the Master in Computer Science &amp; Business Technology, but lacks a strong background in programming software, should get familiar with the basics so that they feel more comfortable when starting the program. And that although it is quite demanding, the program will give them the skills to be successful in a wide subset of careers that are very in demand right now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For Borja, his main takeaway from the program is this: \u201cYour previous successes are somebody else&#8217;s objectives. Don&#8217;t take for granted what you\u2019ve accomplished or think it doesn&#8217;t have value because that could be somebody else&#8217;s next step.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns banner h-banner banner-b is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"banner-title wp-block-heading\" id=\"boost-your-career-with-our-master-in-management\">Interested in enhancing your tech skills with the latest business knowledge and insights?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"banner-content\">Become the business-savvy tech professional of the future with our Master in Computer Science &amp; Business Technology.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button banner-btn\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/school-science-technology\/programs\/master-in-computer-science-and-business-technology\/study-plan\/\">Learn More<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Borja P\u00e9rez Guasch loves technology and its ever-evolving nature.
