Joana Trashlieva is a release engineer with eight years of hands-on experience building and stabilizing CI/CD pipelines, automation, and release processes across cloud-native environments. Currently at Darktrace, she focuses on release management and automation, having progressed internally from testing roles where she developed Python and Robot Framework tests for GitLab pipelines. Her background spans DevOps, integrations and scripting (Shell, Docker, Java) with practical exposure to GCP, Kubernetes and Jenkins, plus early web and Magento work that sharpened her full-stack sensibilities.
