Summary
Samuel Ribas is a DevOps and SRE leader with over a decade of hands-on experience building resilient, automated cloud infrastructure using AWS, Kubernetes (CKA), Terraform and GitOps patterns. He has led geographically distributed teams and driven DevOps transformations at scale, notably shaping Shopify’s global network and SRE practices at Qlik before joining Tecsys. Samuel combines deep networking and security expertise (firewalls, load balancers, routing, IPS/IDS) with strong observability and automation skills (Prometheus, Grafana, ArgoCD, Jenkins, Python/Bash) to reduce toil and improve reliability. He’s also an experienced instructor and certification-holder who translates complex technical concepts into practical runbooks and training, having created hundreds of roles and mentored many engineers. A postgraduate in Cloud Computing from UT Austin, he’s equally comfortable designing low-level network topologies and delivering platform-level IaC and incident governance. Notably, his background merging enterprise network design with cloud-native SRE practices enables pragmatic, cost-aware infrastructure decisions that scale.
