José González García was born in Madrid in 1973 and began competing at fourteen, with guidance from Marcel Sisniega. He moved to Budapest in 1995 to study with Péter Lukács and Tibor Károlyi. He won the Mexican championship in 1996; FIDE records his international-master title in that year and his grandmaster title in 2006. Returning to Mexico in 1999, he established a chess school in Yucatán. His students have included Manuel León Hoyos and Daniel Alsina Leal.

At the 2004 Chess Olympiad he won an individual bronze medal on board three for Mexico. He later settled in Barcelona and directed a chess training centre. His writing includes articles for Peón de Rey and the 2020 book Opening Repertoire: The English Defence. He changed his international representation from Mexico to Spain in 2018.
