Federico Videla — DevSecOps & DevOps Engineer in Santiago, Chile
I'm a DevSecOps and DevOps/SRE engineer based in Santiago, Chile. I design, automate and secure cloud infrastructure — AWS, Google Cloud, Terraform, Kubernetes — and build full-stack web applications end to end in Go. I started out soldering circuits, so IoT hardware and firmware are familiar ground too.
This is the plain-text version of my portfolio. The interactive version is a terminal, and it also runs over SSH.
Services
- Secure CI/CD pipelines — GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab CI, with dependency and image scanning baked into every stage.
- DevOps consulting and infrastructure automation — infrastructure as code with Terraform and Ansible, reproducible least-privilege deploys.
- Container architecture and orchestration — Docker, Kubernetes, Nomad and Helm, from design through day-two operations.
- Application and infrastructure security — SAST/DAST analysis, hardening, cloud configuration review and pentesting.
- Observability and performance — Prometheus, Grafana, New Relic and ELK; bottleneck diagnosis and zero-downtime database migrations.
- Backend and full-stack development — Go services, HTMX and Templ sites, no heavy frameworks.

Projects
- fotomica.cl — full e-commerce site for my own analog photo lab. No external libraries: hand-rolled backend and frontend.
- fotos.fotomica.cl — client portal: customers upload film, we digitize it, they download every roll from their own account.
- lentesfeos.cl — information hub for analog photography enthusiasts.
- felipe.fotomica.cl, alvaro.fotomica.cl, jcur.cl — self-managed personal portfolio sites.
This portfolio over SSH
The same terminal is served over SSH: ssh federicovidela.cl, no account, key or password required. It works one-shot too: ssh federicovidela.cl projects. It is a sandboxed Go server (charm/wish + Bubble Tea), not a real shell: it touches no files, spawns no processes and forwards no ports.
