Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolFelipe Alvarez is a Senior Principal AWS Consultant with 11+ years designing secure, cost-effective cloud platforms across banking, insurance, public sector, and transportation. He blends hands-on expertise in cloud migration, containerization, serverless and CI/CD with strategic leadership—shaping technical roadmaps, mentoring teams, and embedding security and cost controls into architectures. A dual AWS SA-Pro and DevOps-Pro certified engineer, Felipe has led greenfield builds and complex migrations at consultancies like Versent, Mantel Group and now Slalom. He pairs a hands-on systems background (Linux, automation, IaC) and a Master's in Computer and Information Security to bridge ops, dev and security teams effectively. Unusually for an architect, he started as a Linux sysadmin and educator, which informs his pragmatic, tool-oriented approach to platform resilience and developer enablement.
