Guillaume Pineda

SRE & Platform Engineer • Founder of Ouvrage Systems

“A bridge between two worlds: inheriting the wisdom of senior engineers to bring Cloud-grade quality deterministic build pipelines, CI/CD, auditability, and observability to industrial legacy.”

Systems engineer based in Konstanz (Siemens cRSP), designing deterministic, lightweight tooling to modernize legacy builds, extract structured metrics (OMD/Nagios, custom ELK), and guarantee critical infrastructure resilience. Welcome to my engineering journal.

The Craftsman's Exoskeleton: AI as a Mechanical Amplifier, Not an Oracle

A raw retrospective after six years of systems engineering and LLM evolution: why treating AI as an oracle incurs an exponential ‘oracle tax’, and how the systems craftsman uses AI not as an end in itself, but as a grounded exploration lever guided by first principles.

What If Everything (Really) Were Just a File Descriptor? Act I: The Control Plane of stdout

Why AI allows us to revisit Unix foundations from first principles: anatomy of stdout as an interposition bus, and implementing a zero-dependency streaming DLP engine.

From Raw Notes to Published Post: My Augmented Pair-Authoring Workflow

A practical breakdown of how I collaborate with LLMs to translate raw engineering notes into structured, bilingual articles without losing human voice or technical accuracy.

Building a Zero-BS Engineering Journal with Hugo and GitHub Pages

Why and how I built a minimalist, lightning-fast static journal using GoHugo, PaperMod, and GitHub Actions, setting up the baseline before moving to self-hosted Ouvrage tools.
