Germán received his bachelor in computer science by the Universitat Politècnica de València (UPV) in June, 2002. Since 2002, he is a member of the High Performance and Grid Computing Group (GRyCAP), at the UPV. On January 2003 he achieved a fellowship from the Spanish Ministry of Education and Culture under a program for training university teachers. Two years later, in February 2005, he obtained a position of assistant lecturer at the Department of Computer Systems and Computation (DSIC), attached to the School of Engineering in Computer Science (ETSINF). Since 2012, he is associate professor (Profesor Titular de Universidad) at the UPV.

He obtained the PhD in Computer Science in November 2007. His thesis involved the application of advanced computational techniques in the study of the electrical activity of the heart and the design of proteins. It also covered the development of Grid Computing meta-scheduling components aimed at computationally intensive applications. As a researcher, he has been involved in more than 36 R+D projects funded by european, national, regional and local entities. He has co-authored more than 96 papers in international, national conferences and workshops, as well as more than 36 papers in high-impact journals referenced in the Journal Citation Reports (JCR) / Science Citation Index (SCI). His current research interests broadly lie in the area of Cloud Computing and Scientific Computing. He is working in large-scale European Cloud projects such as INDIGO-DataCloud, EOSC-HUB, DEEP Hybrid DataCloud and EOSC-SYNERGY.

He is also interested in learning and applying innovative active methodologies into classroom. Since July 2008 he holds a title of Specialist in Higher Education Pedagogy (EUPU), after having fulfilled a whole-year specialised course for improving the skills of university teachers. In 2009, he received an Excellence in Teaching award from the ETSINF. He co-founded in 2010 the Active Methodologies and Information Technologies (MATI) education research team. Since then, he has been responsible and participated in various projects to research on educational technologies. He has co-authored more than 20 papers in international, national conferences and workshops related to education. He also fullfiled the full-year course titled University Expert in Online Learning.

In the past, he has taught Data Structures and Algorithms (EDA) , Introduction to Computer Science and Programming (IIP) and Programming (PRG) to first-year undergraduate students in the Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering. He now lectures Cloud Computing-related subjects in the Master's Degree in Parallel and Distributed Computing and in the Master's Degree in Information Management. He also lectures Cloud-related subjects at the Master's Degree in Big Data Analytics. He is responsible for the Online Course on Cloud Computing with Amazon Web Services (AWS) which has taught more than 900 people worldwide.

He is married with two children, a boy (Germán Jr.) born in 2009, and a girl (Emma) born in 2011.
