Simona Avornicesei is a .NET Senior Developer with 10+ years building and modernizing enterprise web applications, from legacy .NET migrations to cloud-native .NET 8 and Angular frontends. She combines deep backend expertise with hands-on DevOps—managing AWS infrastructure, Azure pipelines and CI/CD improvements—so teams ship reliable releases. Her background includes leading build engineering efforts and improving test automation (notably contributing QA fixes and NUnit/FluentAssertions upgrades to the CruiseControl.NET project).

Outside day-to-day delivery she contributes to open source and steadily expands her DevOps skillset, bringing a pragmatic, quality-first mindset to complex integrations. Simona’s blend of long-term project stewardship and willingness to learn new languages and tools makes her a strong technical leader for modernization efforts.
