Summary
Guilherme Schwierske is a seasoned software engineering team lead based in Germany with 14 years of hands-on experience building cloud-native, high-availability systems. Currently at StreamElements he moved from shared infrastructure work (AuthZ, NATs, observability) into leading the team building a creator-brand advertising marketplace, blending DevOps, backend and data engineering practices. He has deep expertise in Golang, IAM/AuthN/AuthZ, microservices and distributed systems from roles at Zalando, Planet, InnoGames and others, and a history of improving CI/CD and operational practices at scale. A former freelancer and CTO, he brings an entrepreneurial, product-minded approach and a habit of pairing development with operations to ensure resilient delivery. Unusually for a lead, he also holds a master’s in applied computer science (image processing), reflecting a strong academic foundation beneath his practical engineering skillset.
