About
I'm Leandro Picot.
My professional path did not start in technology. For more than a decade, I worked in the railway industry, eventually becoming a train driver. That experience shaped the way I think about responsibility, systems, timing, and operational discipline.
Over time, I became increasingly interested in software, automation, and infrastructure. Today I work as an SRE / DevOps / Release Engineer, helping teams improve delivery, reliability, and release processes.
Outside software, I build and document mechanical projects, from classic vehicles to personal experiments. This site is both a professional portfolio and a living notebook about building systems, building machines, and building myself.
DevOps Lab
Small platforms that explain real workflows.
A space for hands-on infrastructure, CI/CD, release automation, and operational documentation.
API platform
Kong Platform Migration
API gateway ownership mapping, migration planning and squad onboarding.
Cloud infrastructure
AWS & Terraform Labs
Infrastructure as Code, CloudFront, S3 static hosting, CI/CD pipelines and cloud experiments.
Automation
AI Automation Lab
Cursor, Codex, AI agents, operational automation and documentation workflows.
Media Lab
YouTube, workshop logs and road stories.
YouTube, automotive projects, workshop logs and road stories - documenting the process of building, restoring and learning in public.
Classic cars
Renault 4 Journey
Travel memories, simple mechanics and the stories that come from learning on the road with a classic Renault 4.
Restoration
Peugeot 504 Restoration
A long-term mechanical project about diagnosis, repair sequences, documentation and rebuilding patiently.
Workshop
Workshop Logs
Notes and videos from hands-on experiments, tools, repairs and the practical side of learning by doing.
Road stories
Road Trips & Classic Cars
A media layer for classic vehicles, routes, memories and the process of building in public.
Machines
Mechanical work as another kind of systems thinking.
Machines teach diagnosis, patience, sequencing, and respect for cause and effect. Those lessons carry directly into engineering production systems.
Travel memories
Renault 4
A symbol of movement, simple mechanics, and memorable road stories.
Restoration project
Peugeot 504
A long-term project about rebuilding carefully, learning by doing, and respecting the original machine.
Featured Projects
Professional delivery, platform work and automation experiments.
Selected work that connects enterprise migration, API platform coordination, cloud delivery and AI-assisted operations.
Enterprise migration
Release Engineering / Platform Coordination
GitHub Enterprise Migration
Coordinated repository migrations from legacy platforms to GitHub Enterprise, supporting governance alignment, access management, enterprise onboarding and migration tracking across multiple engineering teams.

Kong, GitHub, Terraform, AWS
Cloud delivery
Personal Project
Mini Release Platform
Built and deployed a cloud-hosted portfolio platform using Infrastructure as Code, CI/CD automation and global content delivery.
HTML, CSS, GitHub Actions, Terraform, AWS S3, CloudFront
AI automation
Automation Lab
AI Automation Workspace
Experimenting with AI agents, operational automation, documentation workflows and productivity systems using modern AI tooling.
Cursor, Codex, Ollama, GitHub, Python
Journal
Learning in public, one system at a time.
Notes on release engineering, infrastructure, restoration, and the personal process of becoming better at the work.
What a release pipeline should prove
A good pipeline does more than run commands. It builds trust in a change before that change reaches users.
Restoration is debugging with metal
Start with symptoms, inspect the system, make one change at a time, and verify the result.
Building myself
The work is technical, but the practice is also personal: consistency, focus, and the humility to keep learning.
Next Milestones
Preparing the platform for real personal content.
01
Add real photos from the Renault 4, Peugeot 504, and DevOps Lab work.
02
Publish the first Peugeot 504 restoration log.
03
Create a dedicated DevOps Lab page for technical project writeups.
04
Add a project timeline that connects releases, repairs, and learning notes.
