Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolOmar Gallo is a Platform Engineer based in Berlin with 14 years of hands-on experience building and operating production web platforms, shaped by over 15 years as a Senior Ruby on Rails engineer and eight years working with front-end frameworks from Backbone to React. He combines deep full-stack chops with four years of cloud-native infrastructure and DevOps practice, frequently taking contractor and lead roles that bridge engineering and operations at companies like Mercedes‑Benz Tech Innovation, XING and devolute. Comfortable leading teams and shipping features end-to-end, Omar has repeatedly moved between strategic platform work and day-to-day engineering, showing a knack for stabilizing systems while evolving developer workflows. His background founding a startup and leading integration efforts gives him an operator’s instinct for product and business context, while his international career—from Madrid to Berlin and remote US projects—reflects adaptability across cultures and tech stacks. Notably, he shifts easily between short-term consulting engagements and longer-term platform ownership, making him effective at both rapid delivery and sustainable engineering.
