IT & infrastructure professional · 10+ years

I think about howthings break.Before they do.

I design and maintain systems by anticipating where they'll fail: dependencies, edge cases, the detail nobody checked. That anticipation is my craft.

The analytical mind

X:0240 · Y:0160

I approach technology with an analytical mindset forged on a non-linear path. Where others see isolated systems, I see interconnected dependencies and potential points of failure.

01

Philosophy

Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication. Reduce dependencies, isolate domains.

02

Metrics

Measure everything. Optimize based on data, not intuition.

03

Execution

Iterative delivery with quality gates. Fail fast, recover faster.

Study the Bible in its original language — without leaving the app

MVI Amor y Gracia Study Bible · PWA

ProblemExisting study Bibles charge extra for the original language or push you out to other sites, fragmenting the study.

ResultA free, installable PWA: tap any word to reveal its original language (Greek/Hebrew), meaning, context, Strong's number, morphology, and every occurrence — without ever leaving the app. I indexed the text word by word against the original Greek and Hebrew sources, designed the data model that links each term to its occurrences, and deployed it on AWS.

Restore everything in under 24 hours

A whole new section, built and animated before dawn

Residenciales Santuario — La Senda · Site section

ProblemA high-value real estate development needed a brand-new section on its existing website, ready for a key presentation at dawn.

About

X:0720 · Y:0480

I'm Armando Aguilar, an IT and infrastructure professional with over a decade spent keeping real systems running. Today I'm moving into cloud solutions architecture — carrying everything I learned in production into the design of platforms that scale and endure.

My path isn't linear, and that's my edge. I trained in systems and networks across two countries — an advanced technical degree in Mexico and a bachelor's in France — and I've led teams and projects hands-on, learning by doing.

Education

IUT — Institut Universitaire de Technologie · France

Bachelor's in Computer & Software Systems · Systems & Network Administration
2011 — 2012
Capstone project: I built and deployed a server connecting every university in France so they could manage academic events together: communicate, see where the next event would be held, what tourist spots were nearby, and the recommended nearby hotels.

Universidad Tecnológica Metropolitana · Mexico

Advanced Technical Degree (TSU) in ICT · Networks & Telecommunications
2009 — 2011
Training in networks and telecommunications, where I won several first places in network configuration and telecommunications. After a year of evaluations, I was one of a handful chosen nationwide for a scholarship to study in France; I earned a French-language certification and scored 'outstanding' on the national exit exam (EGETSU).
