Hi, I’m Jefferson Leon 👋

Software Engineer · Solutions Architect · Cloud focused · Developer

AWS Solutions Architect

Amazon Web Services

In progress

I build reliable, scalable systems — from event-driven backends and microservices to cloud-first architectures on AWS.

I enjoy turning complex problems into clean designs and production-ready code that balances performance, resilience, and developer happiness.

About me

  • 7+ years across fintech, telecom, and SaaS
  • Microservices, event-driven, hexagonal, DDD, and pragmatic SOA
  • AWS heavy hitter across compute, serverless, decoupling, data, and observability domains
  • CI/CD pipelines, code quality, and observability-first mindset
  • I value clarity, documentation, feedback loops, and focused delivery
  • Performance geek and optimization fan — happy mad scientist ⚗️
  • Driven by new challenges and constant learning
