Tony Rizzotto

Staff Software Engineer

Building scalable systems and solving complex problems. 8+ years designing backend infrastructure, platform engineering, and eCommerce systems with Go, TypeScript, Kubernetes, and GCP.

About Me

I'm passionate about building robust, scalable systems that power modern applications. With 8+ years of experience, I've worked across the full stack but found my true calling in backend infrastructure and platform engineering.

My expertise spans Go and TypeScript backends, Kubernetes orchestration, GCP infrastructure, and building event-driven architectures. I believe in writing maintainable code, solving problems creatively, and always learning.

When I'm not coding, you'll find me exploring new technologies, contributing to open source, or architecting solutions to challenging problems.
