I was born in Lima, Peru, although I grew up in Ica, a department in the southern part of the country, so I consider myself an “Iqueño.” Since childhood, influenced by my family, I dreamed of becoming a doctor. Still, as a teenager, the Marvel universe cine and series like “Gundam” led me to develop a deep interest in technology.
Thanks to a government scholarship program, I studied Information Systems Engineering at the Universidad San Ignacio de Loyola (USIL) in Peru. There, I met Jhisenia Cordova, who is now my girlfriend and future wife and has become a fundamental pillar in my life, always supporting my career. I also have fond memories of other great friends who were part of this important time in my life.
My professional career began at IBM Peru, where I started as an SAP intern and later became an SAP specialist. During this time, a colleague and I developed an automation for SAP system health reports, winning the “Call for Automation” contest at IBM Peru with my friend Daniel Molina, marking my first experience in innovation. At IBM, I was fortunate to receive guidance and support from great mentors, such as José Osorio, Henry Orellana, Richard Miguel, and Percy Estrada, who helped me grow professionally.
Later, at Kyndryl, I joined the Innovation Projects team, where I gained further experience in monitoring and automation. This position allowed me to work with tools like Zabbix, Ansible, and Elastic and develop skills in programming with Python and visualization with Kibana and Grafana. I also worked on data integration projects and obtained experience in observability, which solidified my interest in this field.
Subsequently, thanks to a recommendation from Milagros Seclen, I joined Dynatrace, where I have worked on significant observability projects, such as those at Banco de Crédito del Perú (BCP) and with clients in Colombia like Nequi, SURA, and more. At Dynatrace, I’m grateful for the support and mentorship I’ve received from Cesar Saravia, as well as from colleagues like Juan Carlos Conde, Miguel Rincón, and Pierre Gutierrez.
Introducing Member of the Month!
I greatly enjoy spending time with my family, especially with my girlfriend, parents, and sister. I love nature, tropical climates, and green landscapes, which are unique because I grew up in a desert area. These moments remind me of the importance of balancing personal and professional life.
