Lluís Elias is a seasoned technology leader and founder with 11+ years of hands-on engineering and leadership experience building scalable cloud-native platforms from the codebase up. He has led and scaled engineering organizations to 60+ people as CTO, driving migrations to monorepos, IaC-driven AWS environments, observability, and dramatic increases in deployment cadence. Known for blending product-minded architecture with operational rigor, he reduced complexity at scale—streamlining microservices, improving security posture toward SOC2 readiness, and implementing 24/7 service coverage. Fluent across PHP and NodeJS stacks and messaging and data platforms (RabbitMQ, Kafka, MySQL/Postgres, Redis, Elasticsearch), he pairs that breadth with practical DevOps tooling (Ansible, Terraform, Packer, Cloudflare). Based in Barcelona and proudly Catalan, he excels at building teams, OKR-driven cultures, and pragmatic roadmaps that turn technical debt into sustainable velocity.
