My name is José González and I'm a data engineer from Chile 🇨🇱. In the past I did a lot of development and worked as sysadmin, so I've spent a lot of time between code, servers and databases. I'm a perpetual student, a fast learner, and a really curious person. I tend to focus a lot on customer experience and business processes, and I obtained a diploma on Digital Transformation tools in the past.

Coming from a dev/sysadmin background, I decided to focus on solving problems around data, specially data infrastructure and pipelines, which I think is one of the major pain points in companies nowadays.

Here's a summary of skills areas you might be interested in:

Programming languages

• Python (1 year): this is currently my main programming language. I do a lot of stuff with it, from data scrapping and wrangling to web development.
• SQL (8 years): when working with databases, I've done from ad-hoc queries with subqueries and CTEs, to scripting stored procedures for advanced processing of data.
• Others: developed a bunch of websites mixing PHP (Laravel) and Javascript (vanilla/React). Did some Minecraft server plugins and some native Android apps with Java. Also helped a bit on the Azerothcore project using C++.

Databases

• MS SQL Server (8 years): this has been the main DBMS I've faced on production systems. Managed the data, security and performance of the database server.
• MySQL (8 years): used it on freelance projects and small websites, due to it's popularity and support.
• Postgres (1 year): used it mainly on Apache Airflow implementations.
• BigQuery (1 year): used to build datasets for analytics teams, following the medallion architecture (bronce, silver, gold data layers).

Server OS

• Ubuntu Server (8 years): managed a lot of services, including: Apache web server (HTTPD), databases, FTP, SSH, firewall, Postfix and LDAP.
• Windows Server (8 years): managed the network with Active Directory, a web server with IIS and databases with MS SQL Server.
