I'm Henrique Santana! 👋

I'm a Principal Cloud Support Engineer at AWS, specializing in Amazon ECS and EKS and helping customers run everything from traditional microservices to AI/ML inference workloads. Generative AI and container platforms are converging fast, and I work at that intersection daily through direct customer engagements.

Originally from Brazil, I spent over a decade building infrastructure across media, energy, and government sectors before moving to Dublin in 2019. There I co-founded Cloud Native Dublin, a community of 350+ engineers that regularly brings practitioners together around container and cloud-native technologies. I also mentor engineers across career stages, contribute to the AWS Cloud Women Mentorship Program, and hold an MSc in Software Design with Artificial Intelligence.
