About Pedro

Senior Cloud Solutions Architect with 15+ years designing, securing and operating mission-critical infrastructure on AWS and Azure. Specialized in Kubernetes (EKS/AKS/OpenShift), Terraform/IaC, CI/CD (GitLab, Jenkins, ArgoCD), service mesh (Istio) and observability (Prometheus, Grafana, ELK, New Relic).

End-to-end experience: from architecture and migration of legacy on-premise systems to cloud-native platforms, to DevSecOps, hardening, WAF/CDN (Imperva, Akamai), Disaster Recovery and high availability.

I bridge engineering and regulatory compliance (ISO 27001/22301, SOX, GDPR), bringing both technical depth as a hands-on Architect/SRE and the governance perspective of an IT Auditor. Sectors: Telco, Banking & Finance, Media.
