Giorgos Logiotatidis is a Staff Software Engineer with 15 years of experience building high-availability web services and tooling with a strong focus on Python, Django, and cloud-native operations. He has led migrations of traffic-heavy sites to Kubernetes and multi-cloud environments at Mozilla and currently drives platform work at Shopify, blending backend development with SRE and cost-conscious cloud architecture. A long-time open source contributor, Giorgos has made notable back-end improvements to high-profile Mozilla projects like bedrock, mozillians and kitsune, and he routinely publishes most of his work on GitHub. He combines deep Linux and self-hosting expertise with hands-on automation (Terraform, Ansible) and mentors engineers while advising non-technical stakeholders. Outside of work he runs the Athens Python Users Group and enjoys tinkering with hardware and automations — a habit that regularly surfaces practical improvements in the systems he owns.
