Summary
María Moya is a senior software engineer and engineering leader based in Bristol with 11 years’ experience building backend systems, orchestration layers and storage/virtualisation services. She blends hands-on backend development with DevOps and SRE practices, shipping microservices, containers, CI/CD and infrastructure-as-code across cloud and on-prem environments. As Director of Engineering and senior individual contributor at Upsun (formerly Platform.sh), she leads teams while still enjoying "breaking things" to root-cause and harden systems. Her background spans high-performance storage, distributed systems and identity (IAM), from research labs to production platforms like HMRC’s MDTP. Practical problem-solver and avid tinkerer, she pairs deep C/C++ and Python roots with modern Go, Terraform and Kubernetes toolchains. Colleagues value her ability to navigate large codebases and design resilient orchestration for stateful workloads.
