Hi, I'm Fernando Landero

Building Cloud Platforms, Data Architecture, and Production AI Solutions. My focus is helping teams evolve beyond legacy or fragmented environments to build scalable architectures that hold up in production.
My background spans 15+ years in technology, from mission-critical IBM iSeries/AS400 environments to modern data platforms, lakehouse architectures, and AI-enabled workflows in the cloud.
My work sits at the intersection of hands-on engineering, strategic architecture, and platform modernization. While much of my recent delivery has been on Google Cloud, my core value is broader: designing reliable data systems, improving platform maturity, and turning fragmented processes into maintainable operating models.
Strategic Focus
- Cloud & Platform Delivery: Building secure infrastructure, orchestration, CI/CD, and reusable engineering patterns with Terraform, containers, and managed services.
- Data Architecture: Designing scalable pipelines, modeling layers, and modern architectures across warehouses and lakehouses for analytical and operational workloads.
- Production AI & Applied MLOps: Delivering RAG systems, LLM integrations, and evaluation workflows where governance, observability, and data quality are critical for success.
I have delivered work across Banking, Retail, and Logistics, often in environments where reliability, compliance, and operational constraints matter as much as speed.
