Summary
Lukas Plechinger is a Head of Platform Engineering with 13 years of hands-on experience building and operating cloud-native systems, having been among the first developers at Prewave where he crafted many of the platform’s foundational tools. He blends deep engineering skills—Kubernetes cluster administration, CI/CD and system architecture—with a pragmatic DevOps mindset, now steering Prewave’s shift toward platform-centric operations. Based in Graz, he also runs a freelance practice delivering “handcrafted” software for SMEs and provides technical advising locally, demonstrating a continuing appetite for bespoke problem solving. Lukas pairs long-term product ownership with a maker’s attention to detail, rooted in early work mining social media data and tutoring computer science students, which gives him both practical and teaching-oriented perspectives.
