Summary

👤
Senior
Jordi Riera is a Principal Software Developer and DevOps technical lead based in Montreal with 15 years of experience modernizing build and CI/CD systems for companies like Autodesk and fast-growing studios. He has driven large-scale automation—placing CI at the center of delivery pipelines, scaling builds from dozens to hundreds per day, and shipping thousands of Docker images—while leading teams to adopt TDD, observability, and reproducible deployments. Jordi combines hands-on engineering (Python, Go, Docker, Jenkins/CircleCI, AWS) with strategic leadership, having founded tools and services for the VFX community and scaled internal platforms at Rodeo FX and Numigi. An active open-source contributor, he has improved robustness and maintainability in widely used projects such as tweepy, reflecting his focus on reducing randomness in development. Notably, he pairs system-level thinking with practical ergonomics—automating client onboarding from multi-day to multi-hour processes—to keep projects predictable and deployable.
