Summary
Giovanni Pullara is a Platform Engineer with 11 years of hands-on experience building and operating resilient cloud infrastructure, currently managing global platform services at Kraken for ~30 million accounts across four continents. He specializes in AWS-based platforms, Terraform, Kubernetes/EKS, CI/CD pipelines, and automation—bringing a pragmatic focus on systems that “work when they’re supposed to, and fail in ways that make sense.” His background spans startups, consulting and in-house roles where he combined system administration, DevOps and backend development (Python, shell, SQL) to ship reliable production systems. Comfortable running both the orchestration layer and the lower-level Linux plumbing, he also runs a past DevOps consultancy and has a creative side rooted in film studies, which informs a user-conscious approach to platform design.
