Pedro Santos is a Lead IT Consultant based in Frankfurt with 13 years of experience building cloud-native, microservice-driven systems for banking and insurance clients. He combines a strong research background—holding a PhD in Computer Science with work in multimodal NLP—with hands-on engineering in Java, Spring Boot, Kubernetes, Kafka and modern CI/CD tooling. Pedro has led design and extension of production microservices, migrated regulatory platforms to cloud architectures, and coached teams on onboarding and best practices. His career spans academia and industry, from developing UIMA components and teaching to delivering scalable fintech and insurtech solutions. Colleagues appreciate his ability to translate complex regulatory and technical requirements into pragmatic, auditable implementations. A longtime pragmatist with a coder’s sense of humor, he’s as comfortable optimizing Kafka streams as reading binary punchlines.
