Welcome, I'm Lucas Furlan

Lucas Furlan

I’m a platform-minded engineer with a background in IT and cloud operations, focused on building reliable, scalable systems that enable engineering teams to move fast. I’ve supported and improved production infrastructure at Vercel, Airbnb, Cruise, Meta, and Amazon, working across automation, reliability, and platform operations.

Outside work, I keep learning and building side projects and I make time to unplug, travel, and enjoy life off-screen.
