Now — Q2 2026

Last updated: May 13, 2026.

Working on

• Crazy Imagine Software (full-time, remote). Building a unified support and notification system on Laravel + Vue + Inertia.js, integrated with HubSpot for CRM handoff. The companion piece is a Knowledge Base on Inertia.js + Laravel Nova with full-text search and Markdown-driven authoring — turning internal documentation into a first-class product surface.

Learning

I'm working through a sequenced study plan with one goal: get good enough at data platforms on GCP to contribute meaningfully on those teams, without giving up the full-stack and DevOps fluency I already have.

This quarter's focus:

• IBM DevOps & Software Engineering Professional Certificate — currently working through the Containers & Kubernetes and CI/CD modules. Getting these two right pays off across almost any project.
• Generative AI for Software Developers (IBM) — using AI as a tool in the loop, not a replacement for the thinking.
• First GCP labs — small, scoped experiments on Cloud Run + BigQuery to make the destination concrete before the certification track starts in earnest.

Next up (Q3): Google Cloud Professional Data Engineer and DataOps: Automation & Reliability.

Shipping next

• The paired retail e-commerce case studies (recovery + rebuild) — Act 1: stabilizing the inherited platform and Act 2: rebuilding it in three months. One engagement, two pages — first in a short series on platforms I've helped recover and rebuild.
• Two more case studies in the series: high-scale PWA recovery and the nationwide SAP quotation app pattern.
• One open-source repo to publish this quarter — likely a small, useful tool at the intersection of Laravel and BigQuery. (TBD; I'd rather ship one good thing than three half-finished ones.)
• English CV added to /about alongside the Spanish one.

Reading & watching

• Re-reading the SRE book chapters on error budgets and toil — they read very differently when your study plan has "DataOps" in it.
• A steady diet of GCP architecture talks from the last two Cloud Next conferences. Less about features, more about how experienced practitioners frame trade-offs.
• Slow-cooking my way through more Japanese — currently somewhere on the long road between "comfortable with kana" and "comfortable with kanji."

Available for

I'm currently full-time at Crazy Imagine, and I'm open to a conversation about:

• Full-time roles — mid-level IC, senior, or lead — in Full-Stack, Platform, or Data Engineering. Remote-first, ideally with teams shipping (or moving) to GCP.
• Fractional engagements and code or architecture audits on e-commerce or SAP-integrated platforms.

If any of that sounds like your situation, book a 30-minute call or drop me an email. No pressure — even an exploratory chat is welcome.

This page follows the /now page convention. It's updated every quarter — if you're reading it more than three months after the date above, please assume it's stale and check /contact for the latest.
