Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSimon Olander is a Berlin-based Cloud Engineer specializing in observability with 10 years of hands-on experience building resilient, production-grade cloud platforms across AWS, Azure and large distributed systems. Currently shaping SAP’s European cloud observability stack and contributing to the EU ApeiroRA initiative, he combines deep SRE/MLOps practice with pragmatic infrastructure engineering—authoring Cloud Native ops tooling like Greenhouse. He has a track record of designing Terraform-driven landscapes, managing multi-account cloud estates, and turning hour-long failovers into near-instant recovery through automation and process change. Known as a "digital plumber," Simon pairs persistence and problem-ownership with coaching and cross-team knowledge transfer, making him effective in both startup and enterprise contexts. An MSc in Computer Science from KTH and an exchange at KAIST underline a strong academic foundation that complements his practical delivery focus.
