Giulio Calacoci is a Principal DevOps Architect with 12+ years of experience designing resilient CI/CD systems and automating multi-platform package delivery for enterprise PostgreSQL products. At EDB he led the unification of merged delivery infrastructures, building a cloud-native continuous delivery framework using GitHub Actions, AWS and Cloudsmith that publishes packages across many OSes and architectures. A long-time open-source contributor and core developer on the widely used Barman backup-and-recovery project, he brings deep PostgreSQL disaster-recovery expertise alongside pragmatic Python test automation. Known for quickly learning new languages and tools, he combines hands-on engineering with systems thinking to shrink release cycles from days to hours. Off the clock he channels the same attention to craft into cooking and DJing — a hint at his blend of technical precision and creative curiosity.
