Jacob Poot is a DevOps engineer with 11 years of experience designing and operating cloud-native infrastructure and payment-critical backend systems from Mérida, Yucatán. He has driven migrations from monoliths to microservices, built CI/CD and SRE practices, and managed multi-cloud AWS stacks (EC2, ECS, Serverless, RDS, Elasticsearch, IAM) while improving security and lowering TCO in both public sector and startup environments. His recent work includes payments integrations and risk tooling for Cornershop by Uber and leading DevOps at Global Triangles, reflecting deep operational experience with Stripe, Adyen, Cybersource and Transbank. Equally comfortable in code and infrastructure, he pairs backend engineering roots (Ruby on Rails, Java) with hands-on tooling preferences—he’s an avid Neovim user—which hints at a productivity-focused, keyboard-driven workflow.
