Seena Fallah is a Site Reliability Engineer based in Berlin with seven years of experience building and operating cloud-native infrastructure and distributed storage systems. He has deep, hands-on expertise with Ceph, OpenStack, Kubernetes, and automation with Ansible and GitLab CI, having both maintained production clusters and contributed upstream to ceph, ceph-ansible and nginx roles. At IONOS and previous roles he tuned performance for SSD tiers, automated full-stack deployments, and developed high-availability tooling in Go and Python. Seena combines operator-first pragmatism with coding skills—authoring monitoring probes, exporters, and storage-focused back-end fixes (notably in Ceph RGW) that improve reliability and S3 compatibility. His work shows a pattern of fixing platform edge cases (container mounts, systemd units, logging, and TCP tuning) that keep large IaaS services resilient under load. Fluent across infra, backend and automation, he’s an open-source practitioner who literally “loves clouds” and proves it by contributing to the core projects that run them.
