Senior Software & Platform Engineer · 10+ years building cloud-native systems · Barcelona, Spain 🇪🇸
I'm a Senior Software & Platform Engineer with a Ph.D. and 10+ years building backend systems and cloud-native platforms — Go, Python, Kubernetes, and microservices, including a messaging layer handling 300k+ messages/sec. Currently based in Barcelona, Spain 🇪🇸.
I've been in love with Go since 2014 and it's still my favorite language. Python comes a close second, and I have an insatiable appetite for picking up whatever the problem actually needs. I'm a strong advocate for open source and I care about software being tangible — real systems you can run, not diagrams. I've done frontend too, though it's been a while since I last dived in.
The longer version — experience, education, projects, and the odd blog post — lives at 1995parham.me.
