About Daniel

I am a Cloud Architect specialized in Microsoft Azure, with over 10 years of experience designing, implementing, and managing technological infrastructures for high-performance companies. I currently work as a Coordinator and technical manager of IT projects at Sportian (Spain, a company owned by Globant and LALIGA), and I complement my professional activity by collaborating on freelance projects, providing robust, secure, and scalable solutions.

My approach combines cloud and on-premise architecture, security, automation, platform modernization, and comprehensive management of Microsoft environments, which allows me to quickly integrate into projects requiring technical judgment, autonomy, and measurable results.
