Summary
👤
SeniorMoises Silva is a seasoned software engineering manager with 18 years of experience leading infrastructure, security, and real-time communications teams across startups and large enterprises, currently driving Hub Platform Infrastructure & Security at Google. He pairs deep hands-on expertise—from Linux kernel drivers and C systems programming to Java/Python microservices and Kubernetes—with strong product and operational instincts. His career includes founding open-source telephony work used by Fortune 500s (openr2) and meaningful contributions to major projects like Asterisk, FreeSWITCH and Sensu, reflecting rare telecom-to-cloud breadth. Moises has repeatedly built teams from scratch across geographies, instituted robust delivery practices, and filled both technical and product leadership gaps when needed. He’s comfortable going “up, down and across” the stack to solve latency, compliance and reliability challenges at scale. An early self-taught web developer who evolved into a kernel hacker and manager, he brings a practical curiosity that uncovers non-obvious system-level improvements.
