Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolMario Manno is a software developer with 14 years’ experience building backend systems and DevOps tooling, currently contributing to Rancher Fleet at SUSE from the Cologne/Bonn region. He blends deep infrastructure knowledge—BOSH, Kubernetes, Fleet—and practical security experience from earlier PCI/forensics work, enabling reliable cluster management and deployment automation. His open-source contributions include stabilizing critical projects like Rancher, Fleet and Cloud Foundry BOSH and enhancing a Devise security extension and a Go Kraken API client, demonstrating breadth across Go, Ruby, and CI/CD. He has repeatedly improved build/test pipelines and cluster integrations, often focusing on resiliency (dependency fixes, e2e workflows, image/stemcell fixes) rather than flashy features. Colleagues describe him as a pragmatic engineer who pairs systems-level insight with hands-on coding and mentoring.
