Carlisia Campos is a seasoned software engineer with 16 years of experience building cloud-native and distributed systems, primarily in Go, and currently contributing at Teleport from California. She blends deep systems engineering—Velero core maintainer and Knative contributor—with AI systems integration, specializing in GenAI, LLM-based validation, and agentic workflow architectures. As founder of Grokking Tech she self-funded research projects including an open-source MCP Fact Check Server and Bio-Adapt primitives that apply biological coordination ideas to Go concurrency. Her background includes critical production work on certificate lifecycle systems at Fastly and large-scale APIs earlier in her career, reflecting strong operational and release-management chops. A conference speaker and open-source maintainer, she focuses on practical, testable solutions that bridge research and production. Notably, she translates novel bio-inspired coordination concepts into usable Go libraries and agent orchestration frameworks that inform both tooling and design patterns.
