Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolLuis Martín is a software engineer with 13 years of experience building backend systems and full-stack tools across aerospace, astronomy, and cloud-native security domains. Currently at Red Hat, he brings a strong systems background from roles at Quasar Science Resources where he developed Java-based astronomy archives, optimized C++ simulation modules for X-ray instruments, and built Go- and Python-backed services deployed on Kubernetes. He has a track record of improving core data-processing functionality in prominent open-source projects—contributing bug fixes and test coverage to astropy/astroquery and refactoring backend data structures in the StackRox Kubernetes security platform. Comfortable across C++, Java, Go, and Python, he combines academic training in computer engineering and game development with hands-on infrastructure work (VMware, Docker, Helm) to deliver robust, deployable solutions. Notably, his contributions span both scientific data pipelines and security-focused cloud tooling, highlighting an ability to bridge research-grade processing with production-grade deployment.
