Top SchoolLuca Matsumoto is a Senior Software Engineer at LinkedIn with 11 years of experience designing and operating scalable backend systems, configuration management tooling, and cloud-native infrastructure.

Comfortable across Python, Go, Java, Node.js, Kafka, Avro, and container orchestration, he focuses on performance optimization and high-availability architectures.
