Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSebastian Kichtan is a pragmatic engineering leader and Head of Development with over a decade of experience delivering cloud-native platforms, CI/CD and eCommerce systems across Europe, Australia and Asia. He combines hands-on senior software engineering (Java, Scala, Clojure, ATG) with people leadership as an IT chapter lead who mentors teams in Agile, DevOps and continuous delivery. Sebastian has designed an in-house PaaS on AWS, led multi-application cloud migrations, and built organization-wide CI/CD pipelines that shortened release cycles dramatically. Comfortable in complex, distributed environments, he pairs strong stakeholder management with iterative delivery to validate customer behaviour early. He’s as likely to be found profiling load tests or automating deployments as coaching a developer on functional programming patterns.
