Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolEzer Karavani is a Principal Software Engineer based in London with 11 years of experience modernizing large-scale media platforms and leading cloud migrations. At Yahoo and Verizon Media he has driven AWS-native re-architectures, built cross-application Spring Boot auto-configuration packages, and prototyped CDC pipelines with Debezium and MSK to migrate on-prem databases with minimal disruption. He excels at removing legacy debt—having led large migrations from GWT to AngularJS and decommissioned legacy codebases across distributed teams—while improving CI/CD, dev-prod parity, and operational security (TLS/mTLS). Known for pragmatic leadership, he pairs hands-on coding with mentoring and cross-team coordination across time zones to deliver measurable cost and hiring improvements. Comfortable across backend, integration, and infrastructure concerns, he brings a systems-level view that balances performance, reliability, and developer experience. A Ben-Gurion University engineering graduate, he favors practical POCs that accelerate safe transitions to cloud-native architectures.
