About Mauricio

With 6+ years of experience as a Cloud Architect and Backend Developer, I specialize in building secure, production-grade platforms using Azure, AKS, C#, Java, microservices, and DevOps automation. I’ve worked on IoT and near real-time telemetry systems, hybrid cloud deployments, SaaS solutions, and enterprise migrations.

My expertise includes:

  • Azure Architecture (AKS, App Services, Functions, Networking, IoT Hub, Event Hub, Cosmos DB)
  • Kubernetes, Helm Charts, GitOps, CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins)

  • Backend development with C#/.NET and Java Spring Boot
  • Secure cloud integrations using OAuth2, Keycloak, Okta, RBAC, TLS/mTLS
  • Monitoring and operational excellence with ELK and automated deployments
  • Cloud cost optimization, governance, budgeting, and resource lifecycle management
  • Hybrid cloud and lift-and-shift migrations

I focus on delivering reliable, maintainable, and cost-efficient solutions through clean architecture, resilient system design, and strong communication with both technical and business stakeholders.

Additionally, I hold multiple Microsoft Azure certifications, including Azure Solutions Architect (AZ-305), Azure Developer (AZ-204), Azure Administrator (AZ-104), and Azure AI Engineer (AI-102).
