Sebastian Lacuesta is a backend developer with 11 years of Java experience who now specializes in Go, with additional skills in Python and C. He has delivered production systems across fintech, retail, tourism and entertainment, working in both product and consulting contexts for distributed international teams. At companies like Rappi and Compass he improved observability, reduced latency, enforced access controls and helped modernize stacks (including migrations to Java 21 and Go microservices). He has hands-on cloud and serverless experience—designing scalable document storage with AWS Lambda, DynamoDB and ECS—and a track record of cutting infrastructure costs and repetitive code. Comfortable across web and mobile domains as well, he also builds practical tools (e.g., an event photobooth used in 200+ events) that reveal a focus on pragmatic, user-facing solutions. Based in Montevideo, he combines deep backend craftsmanship with a habit of researching and adopting standards to accelerate partner integrations.
