Tamara Kaufler is a seasoned Golang software engineer with 11 years of experience building maintainable, testable and high-performance backend microservices running as Docker containers on Kubernetes. She has delivered production systems across startups and enterprise teams—from continuous deployment/gitops tooling at Weaveworks to regulated booking platforms and consumer-facing services at Karhoo and PhotoBox—bringing strong expertise in gRPC/REST, CI/CD, observability and cloud-native best practices. With an academic background in biomechanics and mathematics, she combines research rigor and teaching experience with practical engineering instincts, often digging into internals and "reinventing wheels" to fully understand system behavior. Based in St Albans and preferring permanent, non-fully-remote backend roles in London, she focuses squarely on backend engineering, tooling and microservice architecture.
