Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJoel Bernstein is a seasoned cloud-native software engineer and consultant with 19 years of experience helping teams deliver secure, reliable, high-performance systems. As owner of a consultancy based in Berlin, he acts as a force-multiplier across SRE, DevOps, DevSecOps and infrastructure-as-code, frequently leading CI/CD, observability, and scaling projects for startups and enterprise teams. He combines deep hands-on skills—from kernel-level systems and networking to database tuning and high-concurrency search—with a pragmatic focus on tooling and feedback that lets product teams "sleep well." Joel has a long track record of rescuing and rearchitecting legacy systems (including 50x performance wins) and contributing to core Perl frameworks, and he mentors teams to raise engineering and delivery standards. Equally comfortable leading or working autonomously, he is available for short- or long-term engagements across the EU and UK as a dual UK/German citizen.
