Summary
Deives Michellis is a seasoned Senior Site Reliability Engineer with over two decades working on Linux systems and more than a decade focused on production SRE and platform engineering. He has built fleet management, deployment automation, and database tooling across major cloud and infra teams at Red Hat, Intercom, Demonware and Amazon, with deep hands-on experience in Python, Terraform, AWS, Kubernetes and sharded MySQL/Vitess systems. He’s repeatedly driven platform migrations and storage/virtualization overhauls—most notably redesigning storage automation at Booking.com and building fleet scaling/remediation for Spot instances and SageMaker inference at Intercom. Comfortable both leading projects and teaching peers, he has a track record of creating tooling, runbooks and workshops to onboard engineers to complex stacks.
