Roberto Aguilar

Support Engineer · Linux & production systems

I'm a Support Engineer in Monterrey, Mexico, focused on Linux applications and production systems. I've spent the last 6+ years troubleshooting everything from web hosting and subscription platforms to banking systems. I like getting past the symptoms, finding the actual cause, and figuring out how to keep the same problem from coming back. Outside of work, I build my own projects.

What I do

  • Applications & users

    Troubleshooting web applications, working through tickets and live chats, and keeping people updated during an incident.

  • Linux & the command line

    Diagnosing servers and services, parsing logs to find the line that matters, and scripting fixes and routine maintenance.

  • Monitoring & metrics

    Watching dashboards and alerts, spotting trends before they turn into incidents, and querying the data behind them.

  • Cloud & deployments

    Deploying and maintaining applications on Kubernetes and Docker, and keeping the services around them healthy.

SodaBuckets

In development

A space for the Latin American Roblox community: players, developers, streamers and creators. I lead the project and build the backend, with the long-term goal of turning it into a social platform for the community.
