About

I’m Verlaine Vilches Rivas, a Telecommunications & Electronics Engineer with extensive experience blending web development with DevOps, systems administration, and networking. I specialize in building and maintaining secure, high-availability platforms across PHP ecosystems (Laravel, WordPress, OctoberCMS), while also managing Linux/AWS environments and virtualized infrastructure with Docker and Proxmox.

I enjoy delivering reliable technical support in international settings, handling everything from server and DNS/DHCP/email services to migrations with zero downtime. Whether I’m developing custom WordPress themes and plugins, administering OJS publishing workflows, or designing wireless/mesh networks that support large concurrency, I focus on performance, security hardening, and scalable solutions.
