My name is Antonia Bonfitto

About

I am a Senior Software Engineer with 7+ years of professional experience. I design and build software systems end to end, with a focus on cloud architecture and backend engineering.

• Backend Engineering

  I have experience building distributed systems, optimizing performance, designing APIs and implementing microservices and event-driven architectures.

• Cloud Architecture

  I design scalable and fault tolerant systems, leveraging modern technologies such as Docker containers, Kubernetes, and cloud platforms such as AWS.

I use modern engineering practices such as automation, CI/CD and  Infrastructure as Code to ensure faster and more reliable releases.

Proficient in multiple tech stacks. I approach technology with pragmatism and choose the most efficient tools for each business challenge. I am autonomous and results-oriented.
