About Me
I am a DevOps Engineer with a background in infrastructure-as-code and system orchestration. Having previously explored the Fedora ecosystem and participated in the NixOS community (focusing on system configuration via Flakes and support in the NixOS Discourse), I am now dedicated to contributing to openSUSE.
My goal is to leverage my DevOps experience to support the distribution, starting with localization and learning the intricacies of SUSE-standard packaging.
Current Involvement
- Localization: Active contributor to the Spanish translation portal (Weblate) for Leap 16.0.
- Packaging Learning Curve: Learning openSUSE packaging standards by porting and maintaining third-party GNOME/Nautilus extensions.

- Ported and validated for Leap 16.0 (SLFO).
- Focused on mastering build macros: `fdupes` optimization, schema handling, and Python dependency resolution.
- Infrastructure as Code: Proven experience in managing complex system states using Nix Flakes.
- Community Engagement: Technical support and documentation in the NixOS Discourse.
Future Goals & Interests
- Infrastructure Support: My long-term goal is to assist in the maintenance and optimization of the openSUSE Infrastructure. I am interested in contributing to the automation and CI/CD pipelines that power the project.
- Continuous Learning: Deepening my knowledge of the Open Build Service (OBS) and factory development workflows.
