Top SchoolJohn Barbuto is a seasoned Site Reliability Engineer with over a decade of hands-on experience designing and operating resilient cloud infrastructure for high-growth consumer and enterprise products. Currently a Staff SRE at Slack, he has led major migrations and platform upgrades—most notably a production migration to Google Cloud using Terraform and a MySQL modernization initiative that improved availability and reduced costs.

A former DevOps manager who returned to IC work by choice, he brings both people leadership and deep technical craft, with a knack for squeezing cost savings from cloud spend and simplifying complex operational workflows. Based in San Francisco, he pairs a long history of infrastructure ownership with a pragmatic focus on measurable impact.
