Summary
Michael Saravo is an IT consultant and seasoned computer engineer with nine years of professional experience designing secure, cloud-first infrastructure and developer workflows. He blends deep hands-on skills—Java/Spring Boot development, low-latency trading systems, PKI-backed security for distributed SOAP projects—with platform and cloud enablement work that spans serverless architectures, Terraform/IaC and hybrid cloud bursting. Michael has led enterprise migrations and governance efforts at USAA and Capital One, driving developer productivity through CI/CD, shift-left compliance tooling, and self-service infrastructure. Equally comfortable near the hardware layer, he has built virtualization and hierarchical storage solutions and integrated research-grade distributed systems with AWS. Based in Texas, he brings a pragmatic focus on operable security and measurable developer experience improvements, often automating gaps between policy and delivery with Python and GitHub Actions.
