Senior🎓
Top SchoolJairo Velasco is a Principal Engineer with 11 years of experience building cloud-native, high-availability systems and data-processing platforms from Cali, Colombia. He blends electrical engineering and computer science expertise—MEng and BE—with hands-on algorithm design and performance optimization across FPGA, GPU, and large-scale distributed services. Jairo has led architecture and delivery at companies through acquisition (Apptio/IBM), driven platform modernization and zero-downtime deployments at Aurea, and designed microservices and CI/CD for multi-region AWS at Alert Logic. He frequently pairs low-level systems thinking (EMV, device I/O, performance profiling) with modern stacks like Docker, Erlang/Python services and AWS data tools to solve hard scalability problems. Colleagues rely on him for pragmatic architecture decisions that turn academic research into production-grade algorithms and resilient operations.
