Summary
Roberto Selbach is a Platform Engineer with 14 years of hands-on experience building and operating backend systems and cloud infrastructure across large, geo-distributed teams and fully remote environments. He has deep expertise in Go, microservices, gRPC, Kubernetes, and CI/CD, and has held senior roles at HashiCorp and startups where he designed identity/auth layers, developer tools, and scalable SaaS platforms. Comfortable across the full stack, he has architected systems on AWS and Google Cloud, led high-impact projects at Intel that saved millions, and mentors engineers to improve delivery and reliability. Based in Lévis, Quebec, he combines pragmatic engineering with operational discipline and a track record of shipping production systems that serve millions of users. An understated strength is his history of cross-cultural and public-sector work—migrating large institutions to open-source platforms—which gives him unusual experience in large-scale migrations and stakeholder collaboration.
