About

Professional summary

I am a Senior Systems Administrator, DevOps Engineer, and Site Reliability Engineer with more than 17 years of experience in systems administration, Linux infrastructure, networking, technical support, cloud platforms, and production operations.

I design, automate, monitor, and secure production environments with a focus on reliability, deployment velocity, and operational efficiency. My background includes Linux administration, virtualization, containers, cloud infrastructure, networking, and open-source technologies.

I work extensively with Docker, Kubernetes, GitOps, GitLab CI/CD, GitHub Actions, Ansible, Terraform, Bash, and Python. I build and optimize CI/CD workflows to improve software delivery processes.

I have implemented centralized observability and alerting using Prometheus, Grafana, Alertmanager, Zabbix, and Uptime Kuma. I use monitoring practices to improve incident response, reduce MTTR, and support reliable operations across Linux server environments.

I have experience integrating security tools such as SonarQube, HostedScan, Snyk, and OWASP Dependency-Check into development workflows. I also work with Nginx, Apache, PostgreSQL, MySQL, pfSense, DNS, VPN, LDAP, and Postfix.

I enjoy mentoring junior engineers and sharing knowledge through workshops and the SysAdmin Community of Cuba, a platform I founded for systems administration documentation, collaboration, and learning.
