Gabriel Seibel is a pragmatic software engineer from Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, with nine years of experience building scalable, cost-efficient backends and cloud infrastructure using Go, Java/Kotlin, Python and C/C++. He has strong DevOps chops—managing Kubernetes clusters, optimizing costs (cutting infrastructure spend by over 60% at Netmaker) and shipping highly available services on AWS and DigitalOcean. His work spans SaaS backends, ETL/data-pipeline engines, and VPN systems (notably contributing to the WireGuard-based Netmaker open-source project by hardening security, fixing race conditions, and improving license handling). Gabriel blends hands-on implementation with systems thinking, often improving reliability through refactoring and stronger error handling, and also brings entrepreneurial experience founding a crypto consultancy and an Android startup. Fluent in Portuguese and advanced in English, he’s completing a postgraduate specialization in Software Engineering while continuing to deliver production-grade systems.
