Hi, I'm Ran πŸ‘‹

AWS Serverless Hero Website LinkedIn Bluesky X

I'm a Principal Software Architect at Palo Alto Networks and a consultant specializing in Platform Engineering and Serverless. With 15+ years in software development and security, I've spent the last 6+ years designing and building customer-facing SaaS serverless services β€” with a focus on production readiness and security.

I write about everything I build at RanTheBuilder.cloud.

Outside of work: proud father of two, amateur barista, electric guitar player.
