Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMikael Samvelian is a Staff Software Engineer specializing in developer productivity with a decade of experience building tooling, automation, and observability across cloud-native environments. He has progressed from QA and test automation into engineering and SRE roles, delivering developer portals, reusable infrastructure templates, and CI/CD pipelines that measurably reduced onboarding time and incident response. Comfortable across languages (Go, Rust, Node.js, Python) and platforms (Kubernetes, AWS, Datadog, Sentry), he pairs hands-on systems work with pragmatic process improvements. At Paper he built a Rust CLI to automate local dev environments and implemented percentage-based rollouts with Slack-integrated deployment telemetry. Colleagues rely on him to turn recurring pain points into reusable templates and pipelines, improving team velocity and observability. Based in Vancouver, he combines a software engineering degree with continuous self-learning (freeCodeCamp) and a knack for making infrastructure and developer experience invisible and reliable.
