Infrastructure that stays up.

I am a Senior Site Reliability Engineer at Flowable, based in Sevilla. I design, build and operate the cloud platforms other teams deploy onto: Kubernetes, infrastructure as code, observability and the release pipelines around them.

My professional journey is defined by driving automation, enabling DevOps culture, and building robust cloud-native platforms that power mission-critical business applications.

About

A bit about me.

I am a Senior DevOps and Platform Engineer with a strong passion for technology and a proven track record in cloud infrastructure, automation, and platform engineering. I have extensive hands-on experience across Microsoft Azure and AWS—and earlier in my career, Google Cloud—designing, implementing, and operating scalable, secure, and resilient environments.

My expertise spans infrastructure as code and platform automation, leveraging tools such as Terraform, Terragrunt, Helm, and GitHub Actions, along with scripting in Bash and PowerShell, and programming in Python. I specialise in Kubernetes orchestration for containerised workloads and have a solid foundation in networking, system administration, and Unix-based operating systems.

I design and manage enterprise-grade monitoring and observability stacks built on Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, and Alertmanager—from metric ingestion and recording rules to actionable dashboards and alert routing aligned with business SLOs.

Earlier in my career I delivered modern applications across multiple contexts, including Google App Engine web apps, JHipster (Angular) frontends, and Spring Boot microservices—always with a focus on scalability, resilience, and maintainability.

Outside of work, I enjoy tinkering with Raspberry Pi projects and home automation—hobbies that keep my curiosity sharp and often find their way into my professional toolkit.
