I build reliable cloud-native platforms for regulated, high-throughput systems.
What I'm looking for
At ALEA IBERIA, I lead reliability for a high-concurrency B2B iGaming aggregation platform handling millions of daily transactions. I operate multi-VPC AWS infrastructure and standardized zero-downtime GitOps deployments, helping reduce MTTR by 35%.
Previously at Banco de Crédito del Perú, I governed 183 AKS clusters for Tier-1 banking and cut cluster provisioning from weeks to under 30 minutes. Across AWS, Azure, Kubernetes, Terraform, and Go/Python automation, I build secure self-service platforms that improve reliability and developer velocity.
