What I do

Connecting cloud transformation with real-world operations and delivery.

Cloud Platforms & Foundations

Building cloud foundations that are secure, scalable and operable.

I work around enterprise cloud platforms and infrastructure foundations across public, hybrid and sovereign environments, with a strong current focus on AWS.

The emphasis is on governance, resilience, automation and making platforms usable beyond the initial build.

Migration & Modernization

Moving workloads and platforms without treating migration as the finish line.

Migration and modernization require more than moving workloads.

I focus on repeatable approaches, clear ownership and industrialized delivery, helping shape capabilities that can scale across projects instead of being reinvented each time.

The goal is to reduce friction between architecture, execution and the operating model that follows.

Managed Services & Operations

Designing services that keep working after transformation is complete.

Managed Services, CloudOps, SRE, observability and FinOps are where architecture meets day-to-day reality.

I work on service models, governance, automation and continuous improvement to make cloud environments reliable, efficient and sustainable over time.

Solution Shaping & Delivery

Turning client needs into solutions teams can actually deliver.

I work across clients, managers, architects and technical teams to shape solutions, align scope and responsibilities, govern delivery and connect technology choices with people, service quality and sustainable economics.

That also means balancing ambition with what can realistically be delivered, operated and evolved over time.

Software & Web Development

Building my technical foundations in software and web development.

My career started in software and web development: first through my final-degree project at Barrabés and then two years in iASoft’s development team, building web applications for different clients. Working from programming through early project-analysis responsibilities gave me the hands-on technical foundation and curiosity for how systems are built that would shape the next stages of my career.
