It's been an absolute privilege to collaborate with Enrique over the last couple of years. One of the standout qualities that resonates with me the most is his impeccable collaboration skills. Enrique isn’t just adept in the technical aspects of cloud and DevOps engineering; he excels in establishing meaningful connections with team members, always ensuring seamless communication and coordination. His commitment to teamwork is evident in the way he supports and unblocks other team members, always putting the collective goal ahead of individual accolades. Furthermore, Enrique's reliability is second to none. In an industry where timelines are often tight and demands high, he consistently proves himself as someone you can truly count on. His unwavering dedication and ability to deliver, no matter the pressures, are truly commendable. In addition to his professional prowess, Enrique brings warmth and camaraderie to the table, making the daily grind not just bearable, but enjoyable. I wholeheartedly recommend Enrique for any endeavour he chooses to pursue in cloud, platform engineering, and DevOps-related arenas.

It is with great pleasure that I write this recommendation for Enrique. As one of my direct reports as Senior DevOps Engineer, Enrique has been one of my most trusted and dependable people for which I have relied on to execute a multitude of tasks and projects. Highlighting some of his most commendable accomplishments: - Enrique overhauled our entire CI/CD system which was in a deplorable state and replaced it with a reliable, fast, and stable solution. - He also owned a great portion of our Infrastructure-as-Code evolution, going from Click-Ops to a fully mature implementation with Terraform across our entire stack. - He was also instrumental in a high-risk, high-visible project: the migration of the entire infrastructure from Open Telekom Cloud to AWS. - He made significant strides in improving our monitoring and observability needs, as well as hardening our security posture to help us meet our compliance obligations which, for a healthcare tech company, are some of the toughest ones to meet. Finally, what makes Enrique stand out among the crowd is his calm and professional demeanor, where even during trying and stressful situations, he never dropped the ball and owned every assignment given to him to complete satisfaction. I am honored and fortunate to have worked alongside with Enrique and any company will be lucky to have him.
