Alberto Hormazabal is a Lead Software Engineer with over a decade building high-throughput, mission-critical systems across finance, healthcare, and DevOps automation. He architected and shipped the PagerDuty Runbook Automation SaaS (formerly Rundeck Cloud), contributed core backend improvements to the popular open-source Rundeck project, and led integrations that unified the MILA stock market. Known for driving migrations to modern stacks (Grails 3, Spring Boot, Kubernetes, IaC) and for performance- and security-focused engineering, he combines hands-on development with technical leadership of interdisciplinary teams. He has a track record of delivering low-latency trading platforms, risk services, and telemedicine systems that later attracted acquisition interest. A pragmatic advocate of DevOps, CI/CD, and lean practices, he also consults across the US and Latin America to help teams adopt scalable operational tooling. Outside engineering, he brings an uncommon creative balance to his work—as noted on his GitHub, he’s also a proficient drummer.
