Summary
Sebastián Tello is a senior developer with 14+ years building resilient, secure distributed systems and developer platforms, currently driving platform and service-mesh initiatives at Atlassian. He blends deep expertise across languages (TypeScript, Go, Java, Python, Ruby) and cloud/Kubernetes infrastructure with a background in penetration testing and automated exploitation, enabling pragmatic security-first design. Sebastián is an advocate of clean code and TDD, mentoring teams through pair-programming and internal workshops to improve developer experience and delivery quality. He’s the author/co-author of several widely used contract-testing tools (including json-schema-diff, linked to two patents) and played a key role rolling out ingress/egress proxies across thousands of microservices with zero incidents. Based in Antequera, Spain, he combines hands-on engineering with tooling and platform thinking, often surfacing cross-team improvements that aren’t obvious from code alone.
