Diego Molina is a senior software engineer with over 17 years in IT and a decade focused on backend systems, bringing 7+ years of production Golang expertise across microservices, serverless, and DevOps. He has driven performance and observability improvements at scale—reducing response times by 4x in security-focused systems—and contributed to Grafana’s backend, fixing concurrency bugs and improving unified storage observability. Diego’s hands-on experience spans cloud platforms (AWS, GCP), container orchestration with Kubernetes, Kafka-driven event architectures, and both OLTP and OLAP databases, complemented by strong CI/CD and automation skills. Comfortable collaborating with product and third-party teams, he has led migrations from monoliths to microservices and helped shape data pipelines and reporting for business decisions. Fluent in English and Spanish and based in Vicente López, Argentina, he combines deep low-level troubleshooting (C, Linux, Ansible) with pragmatic system design for production reliability.
