Hi, I’m Camilo

Senior Solutions Architect for Cloud, Data & AI

I design enterprise data platforms, present them to stakeholders, and deploy them myself — primarily on Azure, for organizations where data is operationally critical.

About

Eight years designing cloud-native data and AI platforms, primarily on Azure, for enterprise organizations.

At Bosch I’m technical lead for the enterprise knowledge graph — the master data platform serving around 3,500 people a day across every division — and delivered €778K in Azure savings on a FinOps engagement. At Microsoft I worked pre-sales and delivery across 10+ enterprise portfolios in public-sector health and finance, telecom and transport.

I move between whiteboard and terminal: architecting the solution, presenting it to stakeholders, and shipping it myself.
