What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers opportunities for growth and innovation in cloud technologies.

I am a dedicated Platform Engineer II at Everbridge, specializing in AWS environment management and task automation using tools like Ansible and Terraform. My academic background includes a Master’s in Information Sciences from Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, where I focused on the intersection of technology and sustainability. I have a BSc in Computer Engineering from Universitat de les Illes Balears, which provided me with a solid foundation in software and hardware design.

Throughout my career, I have gained extensive experience in managing virtual infrastructures, deploying applications in containerized environments, and ensuring data protection compliance. My role at Everbridge involves overseeing the management of microservices on Kubernetes and maintaining applications on Linux. I have also contributed to security and SysOps engineering at Bluekiri, where I focused on incident management and compliance with data protection regulations.
