About Me

AI-Native Cloud Architect · Accelerating Decisions with AI, Data & Automation

Hi, I’m Daniel. I help enterprises and SMBs turn data into intelligence and automate what slows them down—using cloud-native architecture built for scale and security.

I believe technology should solve real problems, not create new ones. My approach is hands-on and pragmatic: I architect systems, write production code, mentor engineers, and translate technical complexity into business value. No slideshow consulting—just results.

I continuously explore and adopt the latest AI tools to sharpen my own workflows—because the best way to help others harness AI is to use it daily myself.

Professional Background

With over a decade in the industry, I’ve evolved from backend development to leading cloud and data transformations. My path has taken me through high-growth startups where speed mattered, to Fortune 500 enterprises at Accenture requiring robust governance and security.

Currently, I work as a Technology Strategy Consultant and Technical Lead, helping organizations navigate cloud migrations, AI adoption, and data platform modernization. I’ve built platforms handling millions of daily requests and led migrations that reduced infrastructure costs by 40%.
