Anselmo Pfeifer
@anselmopfeifer
I build secure, scalable cloud platforms and automated DevSecOps delivery pipelines.
What I'm looking for
I'm currently building and optimizing cloud-native infrastructure and DevOps pipelines at Canopy Software, using AWS, Terraform, EKS, Kubernetes, GitHub Actions, and Python to support secure, high-scale application delivery.
Previously at Malwarebytes and Kuehne + Nagel’s MyKN Portal, I strengthened DevSecOps practices across AWS and Azure environments, embedded security gates in CI/CD pipelines, and helped modernize legacy systems into containerized microservices.
Across 15+ years, I’ve automated cloud infrastructure, delivery pipelines, observability, and security for organizations including Daitan Group, Tecsinapse, and the Brazilian Army. I’m passionate about hands-on engineering and leadership in SRE, DevSecOps, and cloud engineering.
