Summary
Florencio Sarmiento is a pragmatic technology leader and Director of Architecture in the San Francisco Bay Area with 15 years of experience designing and delivering large-scale Java/Spring systems using Agile and continuous delivery practices. He has progressed from hands-on engineering and tech lead roles to shaping architecture and monitoring strategies at AppDynamics, with a track record of decomposing monoliths into domain-focused microservices and building identity solutions based on OAuth2. Equally comfortable in code and customer-facing problem solving, he has developed monitoring and alerting extensions, machine-agent integrations, and performance-minded solutions across complex enterprise environments. A Spring Core certified engineer and agile advocate, he combines deep expertise in Java ecosystems, databases, testing and CI/CD tools with strong mentoring and team-building skills. Not obvious from titles alone: he pairs architectural leadership with practical operational experience—having implemented automated release processes and custom monitoring integrations that materially improved delivery velocity and observability.
