About Ruben M.

AboutResiliency is not a backup plan; it is a business imperative. In today’s volatile digital landscape, my focus is on transforming traditional \"contingency planning\" into a proactive, enterprise-wide culture of readiness. I bridge the gap between high-level business strategy and technical IT execution, ensuring that large-scale corporations possess the structural integrity to withstand and recover from any disruption—from localized system failures to global cyber events.With extensive experience in Large-Cap corporate environments, I specialize in translating complex engineering requirements into comprehensible, goal-oriented business outcomes. I don’t just plan for the \"what if\"; I build the infrastructure that ensures 24/7 continuity.Core ExpertiseDisaster Recovery (DR) Engineering: Orchestrating failover strategies, optimizing RPO/RTO targets, and managing high-availability architectures to ensure data integrity and rapid service restoration.Strategic Resiliency: Designing Business Impact Analysis (BIA) frameworks, Business Service Mapping, and alignment with overarching corporate strategy.Cyber Resilience: Integrating Incident Management with recovery protocols to defend against and recover from sophisticated cyber threats.Governance & Compliance: Leading annual program audits, safety/physical security assessments, and developing rigorous policy and procedure standards.
