Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolNick Larsen is a Senior SRE with 11 years of experience blending software development, Linux systems and network engineering to deliver cloud-native, automated infrastructure at velocity. He has led platform modernization efforts—introducing IaC, containerization and Kubernetes—across banking and public sector environments and now contributes to open source Rust tooling at Stackable. Comfortable in both hands-on engineering and cross-functional coaching, Nick has a track record of turning legacy operations into agile CI/CD-driven teams while improving developer experience and observability. His language breadth (Java/Kotlin/Python/Go/TS/C/C++) and early experiments ingesting network telemetry into Elastic Stack reveal a curiosity for data-driven ops beyond routine SRE tasks. Based in Germany, he combines deep networking roots with modern cloud architecture expertise to build resilient, production-first platforms.
