Summary
Diego Gusava is a senior software engineer with over a decade of experience building scalable backend systems and performance-sensitive front-ends, currently contributing at ASML in Eindhoven. He brings deep expertise in Java and Kotlin, a passion for functional programming since adopting Scala in 2012, and hands-on experience with distributed systems patterns like CQRS and event sourcing. Diego has a track record of dramatic performance optimizations—refactoring services and large spreadsheets to reduce memory use from gigabytes to megabytes—and routinely coaches teams on code quality and test coverage. His stack spans Spring Cloud, Kafka, Akka, Kubernetes, and modern front-end frameworks, and he has delivered production systems across healthcare, manufacturing, and fintech domains. Comfortable owning end-to-end delivery, he combines architecture, tooling (CI/CD, Docker), and client-facing skills to turn ambiguous requirements into robust solutions. A pragmatic problem-solver, he often pairs algorithmic thinking with practical refactors to unlock significant operational improvements.
