Top SchoolFábio Ferreira is a Principal Cyber Security leader based in São Paulo with 11 years of experience driving cloud-native platform engineering, DevSecOps and fraud prevention at Itaú Unibanco. He blends hands-on full-stack development (C++, C#, Java) and SRE/DevOps expertise to design secure, scalable architectures and CI/CD workflows across large financial platforms. Known for leading cross-functional teams, he has improved reliability, reduced toil and embedded security-by-design while operationalizing GitOps, Terraform and Kubernetes at scale. His background spans cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure), observability stacks and FinOps practices, enabling pragmatic trade-offs between cost, compliance and resilience. He pairs advanced academic formation—postgraduate work at ITA/Inatel and leadership training at MIT—with practical leadership that moves proofs-of-concept into production impact. An atypical blend of educator, hands-on engineer and cyber defense specialist, he brings both process discipline and developer empathy to complex, regulated systems.
