Top SchoolFerenc Hernadi is a cloud-native engineering leader and co-founder with 12 years of experience building production-grade infrastructure, observability, and deployment platforms from startup to acquisition. Based in Budapest, he co-founded Banzai Cloud (acquired by Cisco) and later led engineering for cloud-native observability at Cisco Emerging Tech & Incubation before co-founding Axoflow, blending product vision with hands-on backend and DevOps work.

Comfortable moving between code, CI/CD, and architecture, he’s equally practiced at mentoring teams and shaping strategic roadmaps for scalable, secure multi-cloud deployments. An early-career background in risk management and data center operations gives him a practical, operations-first perspective that informs resilient platform design.
