Solutions Architect @ AWS | Cloud & AI | MBA
Cloud consultant by day, climber / vinyl digger / amateur chef / occasional traveller by everything else. I've spent 10 years turning complex infrastructure problems into scalable cloud solutions — currently helping enterprises across Iberia adopt AWS.
I work with financial services, manufacturing, and retail customers on their cloud journey, from building solid foundations to designing architectures that actually scale. Before AWS, I worked on data-driven manufacturing solutions at Volkswagen Digital Solutions, and before that led cloud and DevOps at Banco Credibom — where I was also part of the founding team that launched Pisca Pisca, a used-vehicles platform. Earlier on, I did AI research on swarm robotics, co-founded a robotics control startup, and got my hands dirty with electronics for architectural and artistic installations.

Helping enterprises design and scale on AWS — solid cloud foundations, resilient architectures, and the practical adoption of AI:
- Cloud architecture & migrations for financial services, manufacturing, and retail
- Infrastructure as Code, DevOps, and platform reliability
- Applied GenAI on AWS — from prototypes to production
- Turning "how do complex systems fail and recover" into designs that don't
Upstream contributions to other people's open-source projects:
- wealthfolio — local-first personal finance tracker for investments and net worth (Rust + Tauri). Cut
holdings_snapshotsstorage bloat by ≈8×, tuned SQLite, and fixed the headline time-weighted-return calculation (#1218, merged) - atheepmgr — Atheros wireless EEPROM manager (C). Added macOS (Darwin) build support (#9, merged)
- horaco_switch_ha — native Home Assistant integration for HORACO & OEM managed switches (Python). Added ZX-SWTG124AS support: port-table layout detection, entities only for data the firmware actually reports, and fixture-based parser tests in CI (#2, open)
