Simone Castellani is a software architect with 11 years of experience specializing in cloud-native transformations for large-scale retail platforms. At NTT DATA Italia he led the migration of monolithic systems to Kubernetes-based microservices, introduced GitLab CI/CD and GitOps with ArgoCD, and implemented shift-left DevSecOps practices that dramatically cut deployment times and reduced release errors. He mentors distributed teams across Italy, Morocco and Spain, champions observability with OpenTelemetry, and has hands-on experience integrating hybrid clouds (OCI, GCP) and complex in-store hardware. Comfortable moving between Java, Python and scripting, he combines deep operational know-how with a collaborative, learning-oriented leadership style. An atypical detail: his background in sound engineering and musical informatics informs a systems-thinking approach to designing reliable, well-orchestrated software ecosystems.
