About Jorge

Linux systems administrator with over 15 years of experience (over 6 years freelance and over 4 as an entrepreneur) ...and that's the boring part.

Until recently, I was the CTO of my own company, but that adventure ended to make way for my freelance career again. I love my job, which is also my hobby, so I want to take advantage of it as much as possible during work hours or even in my free time. Some call it an illness and others, dedication, but the truth is that I am very good at what I do and all my clients are happy with me.

Here are some of the many things I do:

• I set up, administer, or integrate any Open Source technology.
• I automate what cannot be automated.
• I diagnose, stabilize, and optimize problematic, unstable, or inefficient systems.
• I design infrastructures whether in bare-metal, virtual, cloud, or containers.
• I transform business needs into optimized digital solutions that are easy to amortize in the short term.
• Infrastructure cost optimization and savings.
• Continuous integration and/or deployments.
• Migrations from bare-metal to Cloud and vice versa with or without containers.
• Dockerization.
• Puppetization.
• And many more...

If you are undecided about carrying out a project related to my profile, ask me, I'm sure I'll dare :)

    Almost all employees of Intelygenz are developers and they need more than a system administrator,
    they need superheroes able to understand their way of thinking and working so that their workday is a
    bit easier and they can focus on making software quality.
    And that's what I am, a superhero who is part of the elite of this great company (I do not get paid for
    advertising).
    My daily tasks are usually:
    ▪ Continuous Integration pipelines development (GitLab-ci and Jenkins): builds, artifacts packing, test
    (end-2-end, integration, quality code, etc), deployment, etc.
    ▪ Bash script development for several scenarios: repetitive tasks, auxiliar script to integrate with CI
    systems, etc.
    ▪ Docker managment and Dockerfiles development.
    ▪ Design infraestructure solutions.
    ▪ Deploy cloud infraestructure with Terraform and CloudFormation.
    ▪ Manage AWS infraestructure.
    ▪ Translate business needs into technical requirements that a team of developers can turn into an
    elegant software solution.
