Gabriel Tiossi is a seasoned Senior Platform and Site Reliability Engineer with nine years building and operating large-scale cloud-native infrastructures across Brazil. He has driven Kubernetes automation and lifecycle management at scale—managing hundreds of clusters and thousands of nodes, authoring cluster tooling and GitOps processes that supported dramatic growth in transaction volumes. Gabriel brings deep hands-on experience with Go, Terraform, kOps and custom controllers, and has contributed to the prominent open-source kOps project by adding EventTTL and EBS lifecycle controls. At companies like iFood, Nubank and HealthEquity he shipped platform features that reduced operational overhead (e.g., a CI/CD template refactor that cut pipeline files sixfold) and enabled self-healing and safer upgrades. He pairs engineering rigor with developer-focused tooling and documentation, having led migrations, workshops and the adoption of RFC/design-doc culture. Based in São Paulo, he combines practical SRE instincts with a knack for turning operational pain points into reusable platform capabilities.
