Diogo is a Tech Lead and Senior Software Engineer on the Data Platform team at Nexthink, based in Lausanne, Switzerland. He designs and operates large-scale distributed systems that process telemetry from millions of endpoints, combining deep expertise in Kubernetes, Kafka, Cassandra, and cloud-native tooling. Prior to Nexthink, Diogo spent over three years at Sky in the commerce organisation, building core billing and subscription infrastructure powering streaming services such as Peacock, NOW, SkyShowtime, and Showmax. A polyglot engineer, he works fluently across Java, Go, and Python, and is an active open-source contributor to projects including KEDA, the Kubernetes Autoscaler, and go-github. He is also the creator of kubectl-xctx, an open-source plugin for managing multiple Kubernetes contexts.

Diogo led an IT/GenAI workshop on Sentiment Analysis for Eden-Well, introducing young participants to how modern AI models can interpret human language and emotion — and how to build and reason about these systems hands-on. Beyond his professional work, he maintains a home lab running Proxmox and actively experiments with AI coaching systems, self-hosted voice assistants, and DIY hardware projects — an ethos of learning by building that he enjoys passing on to others.
