Summary
Oscar Garcia is a Back End Developer with 8 years of hands-on experience building cloud-native, microservice-based systems using Golang, Node.js and Elixir, and a broader 20+ year engineering career spanning enterprise banking to modern startups. He has delivered on 16 projects across 14 teams, frequently operating in AWS environments (ECS, Lambda) and leveraging containers, Kubernetes, and Terraform to bring reliable CI/CD and DevOps practices to production. Comfortable across languages (Go, Java, Python, Groovy) and data stacks (Postgres, Oracle, MongoDB, Redis, Elasticsearch, DynamoDB), he pairs API-driven design with messaging platforms like Kafka and SQS for scalable integration. Recent roles emphasize microservices and event-driven architectures, while earlier positions show deep experience in financial systems and solution architecture. Based in Melbourne, Oscar combines strong implementation skills with system-level thinking—often stepping into both development and deployment workflows to close the loop between code and operations.
