Hi everyone,

I’m Carlos Vega, from a small village in Mallorca, Spain. In case you haven’t heard of it, Mallorca is a tiny island in the middle of the Mediterranean. It’s pretty special—amazing beaches, stunning mountains (Serra de Tramuntana), and, as you can guess, it’s all about tourism.

My first encounter with computers was when I was around 5 or 6 years old, playing Prince of Persia on my dad’s Amstrad PC2286. But I realized I wanted to work in IT when I was about 13 (2nd year of ESO). That’s when we started playing around with HTML at school, and they introduced us to basic programming. I used to love going home and taking apart an old computer we had, just to put it back together again.

At 18, I enrolled in a two-year Grado Superior in System and Network Administration. After that, I jumped straight into the workforce, only to feel like I hadn’t learned much in those two years. So, I decided to go for a Bachelor’s in Telecommunications Engineering at the Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (UOC). Over the years, I moved through different companies and industries, diving deeper into DevOps methodologies and helping development teams gain more autonomy in the deployment lifecycle.

Manuela and Vili Carlos Voltors

Outside of work, I love spending time with my dogs—Vili, Manuela, and Cher 🐕‍🦺—whether it’s walking, going to the park, or trekking. I’m also into sports. I’ve done judo, basketball, and American football since I was four, and I even coached youth teams for a while. These days, I enjoy jogging with Vili or hitting the trails on my mountain bike on weekends.

I started this blog to share some technical knowledge and (hopefully) improve my communication skills. I’ll be writing about DevOps, CI/CD, Kubernetes, Cloud, automation, and everything in between. If my grammar or vocabulary isn’t perfect, don’t be too hard on me—I’m working on it! 😄

Hope you enjoy the content—feel free to reach out! 🚀
