About Jorge
Engineering and operations leader with experience across software development,
systems architecture, cloud platforms, and DevOps. I combine a strong technical
foundation with the ability to communicate clearly, lead multidisciplinary teams, and
translate complex challenges into actionable, high‑impact solutions.
My career evolved from .NET development and professional training into designing
and operating secure, scalable, cloud‑native systems. Along the way, Iʼve led teams,
coached engineers, driven DevOps maturity initiatives, and delivered technical
presentations in academic and enterprise environments. Iʼm recognized for fostering
collaboration, elevating team performance, and aligning engineering practices with
business outcomes.
I hold advanced certifications including Azure Solutions Architect Expert, DevOps
Engineer Expert, Azure Administrator, Azure Developer, PMP, and CKA, reflecting a
commitment to continuous learning and operational excellence. Currently, as
Co‑Founder of Nodestich and HappyCorp Index, I help organizations accelerate their
maturity across DevOps, SecOps, InfraOps, and FinOps, integrating AI‑driven practices
to improve efficiency, reliability, and long‑term value.
