Mauro Benelli Ost

Software Engineer II | Backend Engineer | Go, SQL & API Development | Cloud, Data Integration & Automation

Backend Software Engineer with 3+ years of experience building scalable APIs, data integration pipelines, and automation tools. I specialize in Go, SQL, and backend systems — with proven impact reducing manual testing from days to seconds. At WEX, I built a Go-based DSL testing platform for BizTalk and internal tooling that improved developer productivity across integration platforms. Previously, I handled large-scale ERP ↔ Salesforce integrations, processing tens of thousands of daily transactions. My work spans backend engineering, ETL pipelines, and cloud-native infrastructure on Kubernetes. Preparing to relocate to Italy and seeking opportunities in the European tech industry.

Featured Projects

GTTracker - Multi-Tenant IoT Monitoring Platform

Designed and built a production-oriented IoT monitoring platform composed of 10 Rust microservices (Axum/Tokio/SQLx) and a Next.js control plane. Implemented secure user/device JWT flows, partner-driven device adoption with template/version management, and high-throughput typed time-series ingestion with token-driven throttling and priority event paths. Built cross-service ACL and alert pipelines covering business, zone, and device scopes, including notification workflows and device activity tracking. Deployed with GitOps on Kubernetes using ArgoCD, Traefik, cert-manager, CloudNativePG/PostgreSQL, ScyllaDB, Redis, SealedSecrets, and restrictive network policies, with CI/CD automating per-service image versioning and manifest updates.
