Senior🎓
Top SchoolSantiago Faci is a Staff Software Engineer specializing in API architecture, orchestration, and governance with 12 years building Java and Spring Boot-based data platforms and backend systems. Currently at Wikimedia Foundation, he combines platform engineering with a strong teaching pedigree—lecturing Java, Android, game development (libGDX) and software best practices across universities and technical schools. He has deep hands-on experience in API design, troubleshooting, and software quality from roles in finance and consulting, and a pragmatic focus on production-ready deployments. Comfortable across Java, Android, Python/Django and multiple databases, he often blends classroom-tested pedagogy with real-world architectures to mentor teams and students alike. A lesser-known strength is his long history of curriculum development and vocational training, which informs his clear, maintainable engineering approaches.
