Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolLeonhardt Wille is an engineering manager and platform-focused leader with 11 years of experience building and operating cloud-native infrastructure for fast-growing consumer and enterprise products. He has co-founded startups and shipped diverse systems—from a realtime auction platform and automated 360° product photography hardware/software to a regional online supermarket—bringing an operator’s mindset to product engineering. At PlanetRomeo and Jodel he scaled high-traffic services and led migrations to modern Kubernetes and managed databases, while at Camunda he drove CI/CD, cross-cloud builds, and Kubernetes-as-a-Service initiatives that noticeably reduced build times and improved deployability. Now leading platform engineering at Wire, he blends hands-on SRE skills with management, focusing on workflow automation, Kubernetes, and reproducible delivery. An active open-source contributor since 2009, he often connects infrastructure automation with developer autonomy and documentation—an approach that surfaced in projects like the Camunda Community Hub release process. Colocated in Berlin, he pairs startup grit with mature platform practices and a practical knack for turning manual workflows into scalable automation.
