Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolNick Berezin is a Senior Software Engineering Manager specializing in site reliability and security-focused infrastructure, currently leading SRE for a leading mobile VPN and serving as a Senior Engineering Manager at Dropbox. Over eight years in engineering leadership, he has driven reliability and performance improvements across consumer VPNs and large-scale security products, blending deep networking expertise (BGP, NAT, IPv6) with cloud-native tooling (Kubernetes, Prometheus, Vault). He has a strong hands-on background in automation, testing, and incident reduction from roles at Pango, Aura, and F5, where he led teams tackling DDoS protection, firewall systems, and large-scale test automation. Named projects show he pairs pragmatic SLO-driven monitoring with platform reliability and security hardening, and his dual master’s degrees in systems engineering and cybersecurity underscore a rigorous, defense-in-depth approach. An engineer-manager who still codes in Python/Go and designs systems-level fixes, he’s comfortable translating low-level networking trade-offs into product-facing reliability outcomes.
