Julio Gil
Engineering Manager at SUSE
Spain
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJulio Gil is an engineering manager based in Spain with 12 years of hands-on experience in systems engineering, DevOps and release management, now leading a multinational team responsible for Uyuni. He combines deep sysadmin roots—years of Linux administration, CI/CD, containerization and infrastructure-as-code—with pragmatic release coordination and community stewardship from his SUSE work. A longtime contributor to the uyuni-project, he’s driven key refactors around XML-RPC compatibility and Python 2/3 support, reflecting a careful balance of legacy-system pragmatism and modern engineering practices. Julio is comfortable at both the terminal and the management table: he has run community programs, coordinated cross-team releases, and scaled operational processes for distributed teams. His background in large database ETL, cloud platforms (AWS) and automation tooling gives him a rare breadth across infrastructure, tooling and release pipelines. Colleagues know him as a “one-man army” turned leader who still dives into code and scripts to unblock teams.
