Areas of Expertise

Throughout my career, I’ve worked across different technical areas related to software architecture, cloud platforms, and engineering leadership.

This page provides a deeper look into the types of problems, contexts, and decisions I typically engage with, based on a practical and experience-driven approach.

Software Architecture

I tend to get involved in environments where systems have grown, accumulated complexity, or demand long-term architectural decisions. My approach begins with understanding the technical, organizational, and business context before suggesting changes.

 

I often work in situations where:

  • The original architecture no longer scales with the system

  • Teams face trade-offs between speed, stability, and maintainability

  • Technical debt must be addressed without disrupting delivery

Common topics include:

  • Evolution of existing architectures
  • Trade-offs between scalability and complexity
  • Technical debt and structural decision-making
  • Distributed systems and monoliths in transition
  •  

Cloud & Azure

I have extensive experience working with cloud platforms, particularly Azure, in production environments.
I tend to get involved when infrastructure decisions begin to create friction, such as rising costs, operational complexity, or scalability limitations.

 

My focus is on aligning the cloud platform with both team needs and business constraints, rather than optimizing in isolation. alinear la plataforma con la realidad del equipo y el negocio.

Common topics include:

  • Review of existing cloud architectures and topologies
  • Production scalability and cost optimization
  • Security, identity, and secrets management
  • Observability and daily operations
  •  

DevOps & CI/CD

I usually get involved in contexts where delivery, deployment, and operational processes start creating friction for engineering teams.
Rather than focusing on tools, my approach centers on improving the flow between development and operations, reducing fragility and unnecessary dependencies. mejorar el flujo entre desarrollo y operación, reduciendo puntos de falla y dependencias innecesarias.

 

I typically work in scenarios where:

  • CI/CD pipelines exist but are brittle or difficult to maintain

  • Deployments generate uncertainty or frequent interruptions

  • Automation does not match the team’s actual delivery pace

  • There are tensions between delivery speed and operational stability

Common topics include:

  •  Design and evolution of CI/CD pipelines
  • Deployment automation in production environments
  • Integration between development, QA, and operations
  • Observability and failure handling across delivery workflows
  • Simplification of processes and reduction of manual steps

System Integration

I’ve worked extensively on the design and integration of APIs and distributed systems in environments where multiple services must communicate reliably.
I usually get involved when integrations become a recurring source of errors, tight coupling, or operational uncertainty.

My approach prioritizes clear contracts, well-defined boundaries, and resilience in the face of inevitable failures.

Common topics include:

  • API contract design and review
  • Integration between microservices and legacy systems
  • Error handling, timeouts, retries, and failure scenarios
  • API versioning and long-term evolution
  • Observability and traceability across systems
