Mattia Procopio is a seasoned DevOps and SRE leader with 12 years of experience building and operating cloud-native infrastructure across startups and scaleups, most recently leading DevOps engineering at Klar and previously designing foundational cloud platforms at BlockFi and Den Automation. He blends hands-on systems work (AWS, Terraform, Pulumi, Docker/ECS) with software craftsmanship in Python and Rust, and contributes bug fixes to major open-source projects like Django. Based in Krakow, he combines an engineer’s curiosity—an “astronerd” and astrophotographer who likes to “oxidize the world”—with pragmatic reliability engineering to keep services performant and deployable. Known for thinking continuously about how to improve systems, he pairs infrastructure-as-code discipline with observability tooling such as Grafana to drive measurable uptime and developer velocity.
