01. About Me
Hello! I'm Alex Almansa, a DevOps and Cloud Engineer with a passion for building and optimizing cloud infrastructure. My journey in tech began during my studies at La Salle BCN, where I developed a strong foundation in computer engineering.
I specialize in cloud technologies like AWS and GCP, with expertise in Kubernetes environments. My approach combines technical knowledge with a focus on efficiency and reliability to create robust infrastructure solutions.
One of my core passions is automating complex processes and making apparently difficult tasks simple and accessible. I believe in the power of well-documented code and clear documentation to transform complex technical challenges into manageable solutions, enabling teams to work more efficiently and reducing operational overhead.
Based in Barcelona, I'm available for travel and always looking for new challenges in the DevOps and cloud engineering space.

2024 - Present
As the DevOps Engineer responsible for the company’s main backend platform, I manage distributed cloud infrastructure deployed in AWS and Google Cloud, orchestrated with Kubernetes. My role includes implementing CI/CD pipelines, configuring monitoring and alerting systems, and provisioning resources using Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform). I recently designed and deployed a fully automated system for Bitbucket self-hosted runners with Python-based autoscaling logic, running on Hetzner Cloud. I also oversee company-wide cloud operations, ensuring scalability, security, and cost-efficiency across environments.
