👋 Hi! I'm Raul.

I'm a software engineer based in San Francisco, California.

I have years of experience designing and building scalable and reliable distributed systems in the cloud. I have a proven track record of optimizing developer and operations workflows through innovative cloud-based platforms and tools.

I am proficient in AWS, Go (Golang), and TypeScript, further backed by CKA Kubernetes certification.

I'm also the co-creator of Monsoon, an open-source serverless framework for running browser-based load tests in the cloud.

Monsoon allows software engineers to easily load test their single-page application with real browsers to prepare for traffic spikes or overall business growth. Tests can be of any duration, from minutes to hours or longer.


Monsoon deploys into your AWS account and uses the npm library Puppeteer to simulate real user traffic in your SPA with up to 20,000 Chrome instances.


Engineers can also see their load-test results visualized in a near real-time dashboard.
