Atoumbré Kouassi

Solution Architect & Software Engineer

Building cloud and backend systems with an operator's perspective.

With 15+ years of experience operating critical systems, I now build reliable cloud infrastructure, observability platforms, and software systems. I design systems that are not only built well, but can also be operated, monitored, and scaled with confidence.
