Hi, I'm Federico Roldós.

> Software Engineer · Backend & DevOps

IT student based in Montevideo, Uruguay. I build reliable backend systems, full-stack apps, and the infrastructure that runs them, from Flask and Java services to CI/CD pipelines, containers, and self-hosted servers.

About me

I'm Federico, an IT student at UTEC Uruguay with a DevOps certification from ORT University and an international exchange at Karelia UAS in Finland. My focus is on backend engineering, infrastructure, and automation, but I'm comfortable shipping end-to-end products: I design the API, build the UI, set up the pipeline, and deploy the thing.

Outside of coursework I run my own published projects (a Korean food diary used in production, a desktop finance tracker), administer my own game servers, and write the plugins they run on. I care about clarity, reliability, and getting things to actually ship.

Experience

  • Containerized a sample application with Docker and wrote the Dockerfiles and compose configuration used for local and cloud runs.
  • Built a GitHub Actions pipeline that runs on every push to lint, build, push the image, and deploy it to the target environment.
  • Provisioned and configured the Linux server hosting the deployment, including users, firewall rules, and the Docker runtime.
  • Wrote the full project documentation (architecture, pipeline, rollback steps) and presented the work as my final graduation deliverable.

Project Manager - UTEC Final Degree Project

Fray Bentos, Uruguay

2024
  • Led a cross-functional team of 5, ran the Scrum ceremonies (sprint planning, dailies, reviews, retros), and kept the backlog and sprint board up to date.
  • Broke the hospital equipment management system down into user stories, estimated them with the team, and prioritized scope alongside the client.
  • Coordinated the integration points between the web (Next.js), mobile (Kotlin), and backend (Java/Jakarta EE + Oracle DB) tracks so the components actually talked to each other.
  • Set up and maintained the tooling the team relied on: TestLink for test cases, Mantis for bug tracking, Postman collections, and the SonarQube quality gate.

  • Mapped the client's manual processes with the team and turned them into a digital workflow on the Microsoft Power Platform.
  • Built data-collection forms in Microsoft Forms and Power Virtual Agents chatbots that fed answers into Dataverse tables.
  • Wired everything together with Power Automate flows handling routing, notifications, and document storage in SharePoint.
  • Tested each automation with real client data and adjusted the flows based on the feedback that came back from El Abrojo.
