Summary
Juan Ridano is a senior backend engineer with over 10 years of experience building scalable, production-grade systems primarily in Java and Spring Boot across cloud-native environments. He pairs deep backend expertise with hands-on DevOps and CI/CD skills, having designed Terraform IaC, containerized deployments, and observability solutions on GCP and AWS. Juan has led complex migrations—from on-prem Kubernetes/OpenShift to GCP services and Cloud Functions—and driven architectural shifts like decomposing monoliths and replacing messaging stacks with Kafka to improve reliability and cut costs. He’s comfortable across the stack that powers resilient backend platforms: APIs, asynchronous messaging, secure cloud networking, and automated pipelines. Based in Thailand and open to remote roles in any timezone, he brings experience delivering both engineering leadership and pragmatic implementation across enterprise and startup contexts. A former hospitality manager turned engineer, Juan’s background gives him uncommon empathy for product and operations teams when designing dependable systems.
