Summary
Felix Kastner is a Senior Software Development Engineer with 13 years of full-stack experience and a track record of designing and optimizing large-scale backend systems, currently building at Twitch. Comfortable across front-end, backend, database and cloud ops, he excels in vendor integrations, data shaping, performance profiling and query-driven analytics.

Known for clean, testable code and receptiveness to critique, he combines engineering rigor with hands-on operational experience from running servers and auditing security in production.
