IT enthusiastic.

Aurea Rodríguez, 44 years old, born in Tamaulipas, grew up in Tabasco and with more than 22 years working in Mexico City. Since I was a child I demonstrated a high level of energy in all I do. During the last 15 years I have worked to develop skills to administer tech teams and organizational resources.

With over 18 years of experience working with multicultural teams, primarily in LATAM and the USA, I have executed various projects using different technologies such as agile and waterfall. Areas like developing secure environments, building trust, practicing feedback, and diversity are topics I consistently work on.

The teams I have typically managed have primarily been in the infrastructure field, encompassing both cloud and legacy environments, and engaging in problem-solving activities for internal and/or external clients in domains such as compute, networking, dev pipelines, databases, etc. It has also been our goal to address chronic issues and toil identified through data analysis by means of automation or scripts.

As part of my hobbies and personal activities, I regularly engage with organizations focused on empowering women in tech. Anita Borg, Women in the automotive sector, Epic Queen , and Colectivo23 are some of the associations where I have given talks, mentored young women, or conducted technology-related courses.
