Hey! 👋 I'm Carlos — Platform Engineer with 25+ years in infra.

These days: multi-cloud AWS/GCP, Snowflake, IaC with OpenTofu, and HIPAA/SOC2 in healthcare. I write about what actually works in production. No toy projects.

Glad to be here!

Because OnlyFans wasn’t available at the time. Just kidding. I think it was the logical next step for me, coming from the on-premises world of servers and networking.

That “no toy projects” part really stands out.

I’ve noticed most tutorials stop right before the real problems start — deployment, scaling, and things breaking in production.

From your experience, what’s the most common mistake teams make when moving from dev to production?
