Mostafa Shorim is a Munich-based software engineer with nine years of experience building cloud-native systems, focusing on CI/CD, observability, and Kubernetes-based deployments. At SAP he has progressed from working student to software engineer, contributing notably to Kyma’s CLI, upgrade and integration tests, and automating pipelines for AKS/GKE environments. His open-source work on Kyma’s test-infra and core project improved long-running integration tests and logging (Loki/Fluent Bit), underscoring a strong DevOps and observability mindset. Academically he holds a distinction-level MSc from Technical University Munich and produced a published master’s thesis applying PSO and deep reinforcement learning to energy-efficient task allocation on edge networks. Comfortable across Go, Node.js, Bash and container tooling, he blends research-grade algorithmic thinking with practical automation for production systems. An understated strength is his track record of turning complex distributed testing and logging challenges into repeatable, cloud-agnostic infrastructure.
