Manuel Nóvoa is a Senior Rancher Kubernetes Support Engineer with nine years of international experience building and securing cloud-native and telecom systems. With a BSc in Computer Science Engineering and an MSc in ICT Security, he blends deep systems and networking knowledge with hands-on Linux/Windows administration, scripting (Bash, PowerShell), and database and monitoring expertise. At SUSE he supports Rancher/Kubernetes at scale, drawing on past work automating HPC and container environments and testing complex telecom networks for Nokia.
