Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolBruce Becker is an infrastructure-minded engineering manager and identity & access specialist with 12 years of experience building resilient, cloud-agnostic CI/CD and research computing platforms across Europe and Africa. With a PhD in physics and a history as a postdoc, he brings scientific rigor to automation, quality assurance, and capacity management, having introduced BDD and end-to-end testing for infrastructure at EGI. Comfortable hands-on with Terraform, Vault, Ansible, Helm, Jenkins/Spinnaker and Go/Python/Ruby, he prefers solving problems over firefighting and ships semantic releases. He has led cloud-native teams and reworked legacy pipelines to enable continuous delivery at organizations including UEFA and security-focused firms. A skeptic and self-described "weirdness aficionado," he combines academic depth with pragmatic tooling choices and a track record of fostering interoperability between international research infrastructures. Based in Catania, Sicily, he also holds FitSM Expert certification and a knack for deploying applications anywhere.
