Rafael

About Me

I am Rafael, a Cloud Architect and Technical Leader with over 12 years of experience in the evolution of modern infrastructure. Since 2014, I have been bridging the gap between complex engineering challenges and executive strategy — helping companies scale from their first cloud migrations to achieving global compliance standards like SOC-2, ISO 27001, and HDS.

My expertise is built on a decade of hands-on leadership: from designing multi-year migration roadmaps for global gaming leaders to building automated, secure GKE/AWS platforms for high-growth startups. I provide high-impact services in Interim Technical Direction, Cloud Architecture, and Platform Engineering, ensuring that infrastructure is not just a tool, but a secure and cost-effective driver of business growth.

Operating natively in French, English, and Spanish, I act as a cultural and technical bridge for international teams, providing the strategic oversight needed to navigate today's multi-cloud landscape.
