Fatemeh Shalbaf
I’m a Solution Architect with 7+ years of experience delivering cloud-based digital solutions and leading cross-functional teams. I integrate AI/ML into cloud-native products, shape scalable microservice architectures, and align stakeholders to deliver measurable impact across Europe and Asia. TM Forum certified and comfortable driving enterprise-grade change with Agile and DevOps practices.
I combine product thinking with hands-on architecture to translate complex business needs into secure, scalable designs. From MVP to full-scale releases, I drive clarity on scope and non-functional requirements, ensuring every iteration moves key metrics in the right direction.
Cloud (AWS/Azure/GCP), microservices, and enterprise integration (Kafka/RabbitMQ) are my core tools. I enable AI/ML in production with feature stores, event-driven pipelines, and canary deployments, backed by observability (tracing, metrics, logs) and automated CI/CD.
Integrated AI/ML into cloud-native products to boost operational efficiency by 26%. Led cloud transformation and microservices programs that improved scalability and performance by 30%. Delivered 10+ digital solutions across Europe and Asia, aligning executive stakeholders and distributed teams.
I specialize in turning strategic initiatives into executable roadmaps. My approach blends stakeholder alignment with rigorous engineering practices—service boundaries by capability, event-driven integration, and data-informed iteration. The result is sustainable velocity from MVP through scale-out, with proactive risk management and transparent communication.
Ship resilient systems with clear SLAs and SLOs, automated testing, security controls, and runbooks—so releases are predictable and safe.
Run focused elicitation workshops, apply MoSCoW prioritization, and maintain tight feedback loops to reduce scope creep and accelerate value.
Prefer asynchronous patterns, back-pressure, idempotency, and strong observability to simplify operations and keep total cost of ownership in check.
