About Me
I operate where Information Systems, DevSecOps, Site Reliability, and cultural heritage preservation intersect. I design systems that stay understandable under stress and remain economically viable at scale.
My work ranges from designing automated failover for live broadcast infrastructure handling 1,000+ livestreams to documenting the acoustic properties of geological formations in Salta, Argentina (recognized by the Latin Grammy Foundation).
How I Got Here
I started two parallel tracks: working as a fullstack web developer while studying music technology at Universidad Nacional de Quilmes.
One of the projects I’m most proud of from that period is Fundacion IDA, a digital archive for Argentina’s graphic and industrial design heritage. Built with Drupal, it was my first experience designing complex role-based access control systems. The same RBAC principles are what cloud providers use today.
At college, while my classmates were learning Pro Tools and Ableton Live, I was writing parsers that turned YAML files into MIDI sequences, editing tracks with SoX and mixing them with Ecasound. We shared the same interests (Pitch Class Sets, Ligeti’s orchestration techniques), but I preferred command-line tools because captive interfaces lock you in. Plain text is version-controllable, automatable, composable and resistant to obsolescence.
Decades later, I formalized this intuition. Now those text-based descriptors from my student days, among other virtues, remain inspectable and can train ML models. The format outlived the tooling.
A practical application of my bachelor thesis project (yml2mid) won Argentina’s National Innovation Award in 2022. More importantly, it demonstrated something that has guided every project since: the right abstraction makes complex systems simple.
From there, I moved into postgraduate studies in Information Systems Engineering at UTN. This program formalized what I’d already been doing: designing distributed systems through modular composition, explicit interfaces and well-defined failure domains. I explored mapping object-oriented design patterns onto container orchestration. I also gained discipline in court-admissible digital forensic analysis, understood the intricacies of writing to and retrieving from distributed ledgers and studied different approaches to meta-heuristics, multi-agent systems and intelligence simulation.
I’ve spent over twenty years in Linux systems engineering, cloud infrastructure and blue team security. I’ve architected migrations that achieved 400x performance improvements by redesigning data flow boundaries and eliminating synchronous bottlenecks. I’ve reduced MTTR by over 90% through event-driven alerting, runbook automation and tighter observability loops. I’ve built supply chain security pipelines where every artifact is signed, scanned and provably intact.
I’ve led infrastructure migrations, mentored engineers and partnered with product and security stakeholders to align reliability targets with delivery cadence. I’ve also built sound installations, contributed to acoustic heritage projects, developed games for virtual worlds and published research on smart cities and knowledge management.
What I Actually Do
DevSecOps and Site Reliability: I design and operate high-availability infrastructure for OTT media, live streaming and distributed systems. This includes supply chain security (SBOMs, artifact signing, provenance verification), blue team operations, secure CI/CD pipelines and observability with incident response. I diagnose and resolve complex production issues, such as DASH segment fetching bugs that can generate millions of phantom CDN requests, coordinating with backend and CDN teams to maintain reliability. In my work, 99.9% uptime is the baseline, not the goal.
Research and Theory: I write research on UNIX philosophy and knowledge management, object-oriented design patterns in container infrastructure and conceptual modeling for smart cities.
Cultural Work: I contribute to acoustic heritage preservation in collaboration with the Latin Grammy Foundation, create sound installations for international festivals and build tools for musicians who think like programmers and programmers who think like musicians.
Open Source: I build the tools I wish existed: MIDI sequencers that treat music as code, Kubernetes auditors aggregating SBOM and CVE data, academic publishing toolkits built on plain text pipelines and infrastructure that respects the user’s intelligence.

Current Focus
Based in Pontevedra, Spain. Working globally.
Building secure, observable, resilient systems. Designing infrastructure that degrades gracefully. Writing tools for people who care about craft. Preserving cultural knowledge before it disappears.
Design Philosophy
Although I’m not dedicated to Frontend or UI/UX day-to-day, I’m deeply interested in color theory, typography, readability, grid systems and perception. Thoughtful design, whether in user interfaces, documentation or system architecture, significantly impacts comprehension and knowledge transfer.
