Rui Melo is a Solutions Architect specializing in DevOps and AI with 18+ years at Microsoft and nine years of hands-on experience driving cloud, platform, and operating model transformations. He helps organizations translate strategy into repeatable patterns and measurable outcomes—using C4/Mermaid diagrams, policy-as-code, and SRE practices to lift quality, security, cost controls, and resilience. Rui has led Copilot and GenAI enablement for legal and regulatory workflows and runs practitioner bootcamps and executive workshops to embed continuous improvement and OKR-driven product thinking. Comfortable at the intersection of architecture, product management, and platform engineering, he builds communities of practice and coaches teams to adopt modern delivery models. Based in Lisbon, he brings a practitioner’s curiosity (and a fondness for craft beer) to pragmatic, outcome-focused transformation programs.
