Summary
Okan Sahiner is a seasoned infrastructure and site reliability leader with over a decade of hands-on experience and 4+ years in management, currently heading Infrastructure for B2C at Digital Science/Overleaf from Berlin. He has built and operated large-scale, secure cloud platforms across telecom, banking, and high-throughput consumer services, including running systems that handle tens of millions of requests daily. Okan combines deep SRE and DevOps expertise (Kubernetes, GCP, Terraform, Datadog) with pragmatic product and budget ownership, driving reliability, automation, and cost-conscious capacity planning. He has a track record of introducing tooling and platform changes that reduce time-to-recovery and increase deployment velocity for global teams. Unusually for an infrastructure leader, he pairs technical depth with business training—an MBA and ongoing computer science master’s study—so he bridges engineering, product, and fiscal decision-making. Based in Berlin, he focuses on empowering engineering teams while keeping customer-facing services secure, performant, and scalable.
