Gastón Rial Saibene

I am a Uruguayan (ítalo-uruguayo) engineer. My academic interests in machine learning and cybersecurity led to a collaboration with CERTuy to enhance the detection of Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs) targeting government websites. This collaborative effort was published in Memoria de Investigaciones en Ingenieria Nr.18 and earned recognition from Uruguay's National Academy of Engineering in the computing category.

In 2020, I relocated to Warsaw, Poland, to join Google as a Technical Solutions Engineer for Google Cloud before transitioning to a Site Reliability Engineer role in ProdSec (Security and Privacy). As the first SRE in Poland, I helped building the SRE site from the ground up, establishing foundational practices and bringing on new talent to support the team. In 2022, I moved to Copenhagen, Denmark, where I am currently leading the SRE transformation at Boozt.com, focusing on optimizing software system performance and reliability.
