๐Ÿ‘‹ Hi, I'm Valerio Uberti

Platform Engineer Lead | Software Architect | Cloud-Native & Distributed Systems

Building reliable platforms, scalable backends, and event-driven systems in Italy ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡น

๐Ÿš€ About Me

I'm a Platform Engineer Lead and Software Architect with 8+ years of experience designing cloud-native backends, APIs, data-intensive systems, and reliable distributed platforms.

I combine hands-on engineering with architectural ownership, technical leadership, and close collaboration with engineering, SRE, product, and business stakeholders.

My work focuses on:

  • โ˜๏ธ Cloud-native and serverless architecture on AWS
  • ๐Ÿ—๏ธ Platform engineering and Infrastructure as Code
  • โšก Event-driven and real-time distributed systems
  • ๐Ÿ”„ CI/CD, delivery automation, and engineering quality
  • ๐Ÿ“Š Observability, reliability, and production readiness
  • ๐Ÿงญ Technical leadership and architectural decision-making

One of the platforms I helped architect was designed to process 1 million notifications in under 10 minutes, using scalable asynchronous services and a serverless AWS architecture.

  • Platform Engineering: improving developer experience, delivery standards, automation, and operational readiness
  • Cloud Architecture: building scalable, resilient, and cost-conscious systems on AWS
  • Distributed Systems: designing asynchronous services, event-driven workflows, and real-time data pipelines
  • Infrastructure as Code: creating consistent, repeatable, and immutable environments with Terraform
  • Engineering Quality: strengthening testing, code reviews, CI/CD pipelines, and production reliability
  • Technical Leadership: connecting architectural decisions with product and business outcomes

๐Ÿ’ก Selected Highlights

  • Led platform engineering and DevOps initiatives across infrastructure, CI/CD, automation, observability, and engineering standards
  • Architected the migration of a critical notification platform from on-premises infrastructure to a serverless AWS environment
  • Designed an architecture capable of processing 1 million notifications in under 10 minutes
  • Built high-throughput asynchronous microservices for multi-channel communication workflows
  • Developed real-time data pipelines with Apache Kafka and Apache Flink
  • Defined Terraform standards for consistent, repeatable, and immutable environments
  • Contributed to cloud-native insurance platforms using real-time telematics data
  • Led the decomposition of a legacy monolith into independently deployable microservices
  • Integrated AI-driven workflows for automated vehicle damage assessment

๐ŸŒฑ Current Interests

  • AI-assisted engineering and platform automation
  • High-performance systems and the Rust ecosystem
  • Developer platforms and internal engineering tooling
  • Reliability engineering and production observability
  • Scalable event-driven architectures
  • Cloud-native delivery practices

๐Ÿค Let's Connect

I'm always interested in exchanging ideas about:

  • Platform and backend engineering
  • Cloud-native and distributed architectures
  • Event-driven systems and real-time processing
  • Infrastructure as Code and delivery automation
  • Reliability, observability, and production readiness
  • Technical leadership and engineering practices
  • Open-source projects and developer tooling
Building reliable platforms, scalable systems, and better engineering practices.
