André Sacilotto Santos

Performance & Infrastructure Engineer at Dell Innovation Center | MSc Candidate in Parallel & Distributed Systems | IEEE Published

I build automation platforms that make database performance benchmarking reproducible and scalable. By day, I work with Terraform, Ansible, Kubernetes, and Go at Dell Innovation Center. By night (well, also by day), I research container interference profiling for my Master's at PUCRS.

Former classical violinist who traded obsessing over intonation for obsessing over latency. The pursuit of mastery carried over—my teammates once called me "The Infra Wizard" during project retrospectives, and I'm still not sure I've lived up to it.


What I'm working on

At Dell Innovation Center -- Building end-to-end automation for database performance analysis across Oracle, MongoDB, and PostgreSQL. The platform provisions distributed test environments using Python/Ansible, runs containerized benchmarks (HammerDB, YCSB), and collects all data through Prometheus + Grafana.

Master's Research (IntP) -- Developing a kernel-level profiling tool for measuring performance interference in containerized environments. Currently built on SystemTap, with eBPF as a research direction under evaluation for Linux 6.8+. Advised by Prof. Cesar De Rose at PPGCC-PUCRS.


Things I build with

Languages      Go, Python, C/C++, TypeScript, Shell
Infra & IaC    Terraform, Ansible, Kubernetes, Docker/Podman
Backend        NestJS, Node.js, gRPC, REST
Databases      PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Oracle
Observability  Prometheus, Grafana, HammerDB, YCSB
Profiling      SystemTap, perf (+ eBPF tooling under research)
Cloud          AWS, Azure
