Summary
Guilherme Almeida is a cloud-focused software engineer with a decade of hands-on experience building secure, scalable platforms and developer tooling. Based in Porto, he currently works as a Junior Cloud Engineer at Kuehne+Nagel after developing an MSc thesis and internship project on Automated FinOps for cloud cost management. His background spans DevSecOps, pentesting, CI/CD and containerization—having rebuilt and hardened CTFd infrastructure for university courses and automated challenge deployment for teaching use. Guilherme has practical telecom software experience from Altice Labs and has driven student-run tech initiatives, managing infrastructure, events and automation for campus groups. He combines strong academic results from U. Porto and Chalmers with a knack for turning security research into production-ready platform features. An early-career engineer who already blends offensive security skills with cloud cost and platform engineering, he’s comfortable shipping both experiments and reliable operational systems.
