Sergio Pelegrina is a Full Stack Engineer with 8 years of experience building scalable web and backend systems across startups and product teams from Granada, Spain. He has a strong backend focus—designing microservices in Node.js with Kafka-based streaming, integrating ScyllaDB, OpenSearch and MySQL—and is equally comfortable shipping React/Next.js frontends and TypeScript-driven UI work. Sergio’s early C work on the well-known Wazuh open-source security platform gives him practical security and systems-level experience, including fixes for OpenSSL, file-descriptor handling, and installer permissions that improved cross-platform robustness. He has also developed production-ready APIs in Python/FastAPI, deployed AWS Lambda functions, and automated business flows with Zapier, demonstrating a pragmatic blend of engineering and product thinking. Known for bridging performance-focused backend design with attention to user-facing quality, he brings hands-on problem solving from low-level debugging to distributed real-time architectures.
