Luca Cavallin

Software Engineer, Mentor, Photographer.
GitHub, Inc.

As a Senior Software Engineer at GitHub Actions, I am passionate about (building) developer and infrastructure tools, with expertise in Go, Kubernetes, and the Cloud Native domain. Currently, I am expanding my knowledge in Rust, systems- and network-programming.

Beyond my primary expertise, I've branched out into areas like .NET, React, TypeScript, APIs, data engineering, and Google Cloud to name a few. My past also saw me wearing the hats of a consultant, delivering hands-on training sessions, hosting podcasts, and organizing engaging meetups for the tech community. I'm an active contributor to open source and believe in the importance of knowledge sharing, as evidenced by my blog posts and talks. Additionally, I hold the title of Google Developer Expert (GDE) and CNCF Ambassador.

For a deeper dive into my contributions, head over to my blog. For those new to open source, consider exploring verto.sh. And if you're on the lookout for mentorship, I offer guidance on MentorCruise. As a recognized Top mentor on MentorCruise, I provide tailored mentorship to software engineers looking to enhance their skills, navigate career transitions, and achieve their professional goals. My approach combines practical advice, hands-on support, and personalized learning paths to ensure mentees gain confidence and expertise in their chosen fields.

Outside of work, activities like photography, cycling, cooking on a kamado, and cleaning litterboxes keep me occupied 🐈. Photography, in particular, is a cherished hobby that allows me to capture the beauty of the world through my lens. Whether it's landscapes, wildlife, or urban decay, photography offers me a creative outlet and a way to connect with my surroundings on a deeper level.

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or inquiries about my areas of expertise or services. Whether it's about software engineering, mentorship, or photography, I'm always open to connecting and sharing knowledge.
