Andrés Herrera is a Site Reliability Engineer with 12 years of experience designing and operating resilient, fully automated cloud infrastructures—specializing in AWS—across startups and global companies. He has progressed from systems and Perl/PHP development to senior AWS consulting and cloud engineering roles, bringing practical software architecture insight to optimize infrastructure costs and performance. At Twilio and now Modak he has supported large-scale, customer-facing platforms, blending hands-on automation with architecture-driven improvements. Based in Colombia, he pairs formal engineering training with a consulting mindset that helps teams translate business needs into secure, elastic systems. Not obvious from titles: his background as a developer-turned-operator gives him a rare ability to refactor applications to better leverage cloud primitives and reduce operational surface area.
