Summary
Santiago Nuñez-cacho is a Site Reliability Engineer and team coordinator based in Barcelona with around 10–15 years of hands-on experience building and operating production systems from the sysadmin era to cloud-native Kubernetes. At Softonic he progressed from Systems Engineer to leading SRE efforts, running Docker/Kubernetes on GCP (GKE), Istio service mesh, CI/CD with Jenkins, and observability with Prometheus/Grafana and ELK. He pairs deep Linux/RHEL expertise, MySQL operational experience and Puppet automation with Terraform-based provisioning and a CKA certification, enabling resilient, scalable services and secure secret management. Comfortable bridging ops and dev tooling, he brings practical strengths in service discovery, load balancing and pipeline analysis while mentoring SRE practices across teams. A background in electrical engineering and long tenure in production operations give him a systems-thinking perspective that favors pragmatic, low-risk improvements over flashy rewrites.
