Summary
Savas Aydin is a senior software engineer and consultant with 13 years of experience building and supporting distributed systems, currently working across Cisco and Ada Beat in Stockholm. He is an extreme programming advocate who blends hands-on development in Erlang, Python, C and Java with CI/CD, Linux services, and customer-facing deployment and support. His background includes deep expertise in network management products (ConfD, NSO), mentoring teams in Erlang, and running component-level continuous integration for mission-critical telecom systems. Comfortable across kernel-level services to higher-level automation, he’s familiar with containers, OpenStack, Go and Elixir, and routinely produces user documentation and demos for product users. Colleagues rely on him as a pragmatic gatekeeper who balances reliability, observability and XP practices in fast-moving cross-functional teams. An unexpected detail: he has academic project experience ranging from BitTorrent clients in Erlang to Arduino-driven drones, reflecting both systems-level rigor and a hobbyist curiosity.
