Hamed Faramarzi

Lead SRE

About Me

Hi, I’m Hamed — a passionate Lead SRE and tech junkie. When I’m not solving complex system challenges, you’ll find me talking for hours about music, cinema, and craft beers. Whether it’s development, DevOps, system engineering, networks, or voice solutions — count me in! 🚀

In my free time, I’m a solo traveler and an avid photographer. I’m also a Berlin Marathon finisher — 1x marathon, 1x IT band injury. Currently, I’m putting my soul into creating my very first music album. 🎶 Check out my project Moozic — still early days, but growing!

Bonus skills? I’m pretty handy in the kitchen and behind the bar — Cooking & Cocktail Making are my secret arts. 🍳🍸
