Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolGabriel Silk is a technology consultant and seasoned software engineer with 11+ years building high-throughput, resilient data and serving infrastructure for companies from startups to Dropbox and Robinhood. He specializes in transforming systems for extreme scale—migrating petabyte-class clusters to the cloud, designing data platforms that handle millions of events per second, and adding “another 9” of availability for mission-critical services. Gabriel combines hands-on SRE and low-level systems expertise (C++/assembly roots) with product-minded leadership, having driven zero-downtime Kubernetes migrations and 10x TPS elasticity during high-stress events. He helps organizations operationalize data, security, and ML infra, and has a knack for turning brittle platforms into SLA-driven, developer-friendly ecosystems. Based in Bend, Oregon, he’s equally comfortable stabilizing a 50PB data stack or bootstrapping a small team to bring a product to market.
