Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJuan Utande is a hands-on Solutions Architect and technical advocate based in Madrid with nearly a decade of focused experience in cloud-native, container, and open-source platforms. He blends presales, technical marketing, and solution architecture expertise from roles at SUSE and Red Hat to help teams make confident platform and operational decisions across complex sales cycles. Comfortable down to code thanks to his software engineering roots, he designs reference architectures, runs discovery workshops and PoCs, and creates technical assets that bridge engineering and business needs. As Cloud Native Madrid organizer and an active community builder, he amplifies local adoption and practical knowledge sharing beyond vendor boundaries. He’s known for translating modern app patterns (12‑factor, microservices, service mesh, streaming) into pragmatic, deployable solutions that keep architects grounded in how systems are actually built and run. Despite a strategic focus, he still enjoys the hacker’s mindset—“taming computers”—which informs his practical, hands-on approach.
