I'm a surfer, a crypto trader, and a DevSecOps Engineer with 15 years of experience designing highly-available distributed production environments and developing cloud-native apps in public and private clouds. It was a teenage passion. I used to manipulate my Commodore 64, and it brought me to engineer software for foreign military organizations and international banks, as the very beginning of my flirt with the IT. It's been a long journey since then, through intelligence, hacking, extreme programming, hybrid cloud architectures, and any technology I've been able to touch, study, implement, hack. Every day, I craft my skills into automation, event-driven pipelines, and CI/CD with a cybersecurity mindset. My focus is on offensive security, software-defined networks, infrastructures as code, Kubernetes, Containerization, serverless programming, and stateful deployment strategies. Last but not least, I tend to break monolithic code into loosely coupled (micro) services.
