Top SchoolRafael Amor is a Staff Software Engineer with a decade of experience designing and shipping reactive, event-driven architectures for high-throughput systems. He has driven large-scale platform rebuilds (e.g., Vrbo/Expedia reviews) achieving multi-thousand TPS with low p99 latency and real cost reductions, and now applies that expertise at Glovo. Skilled in functional programming and DDD/hexagonal design, he programs across Scala, Java, Python and JavaScript and operates production stacks spanning Kafka, Akka, Cassandra/Scylla, Kubernetes and AWS. A pragmatic team builder and XP advocate, he champions TDD, pair programming, CI/CD and knowledge sharing while actively mentoring and running meetups and hackathons.
