I believe in microservices, the DevOps approach and the SRE implementation as much as ever. The cool cat vision ML and data processing engineers here need the same sorts of reliable, scalable, maintainable systems that I like to build. It's all Google Cloud, stamped out in Terraform and reviewed in Github. I do have some new career highlights:- Kubernetes.

Microservices, the way to envision product and its architecture. It's the approach to software design and, keeping in mind Conway's Law, how to structure the engineering teams.DevOps, the process and methodology for writing software and deploying infrastructure to produce higher quality code with faster feedback.Site Reliability Engineering, the game plan.

I've loved writing beautiful software but what about running it? To figure that out--how to scale, monitor, auto-heal--I switched tracks into DevOps. I spent extensive time with Collectd, Chef, Fabric and Python to manage deployments on AWS and hardware datacenters. I prototyped a Docker framework, lobbied for microservices and experimented with Chronos.

What a surprise to work for a nonprofit again! I came on board The Bay Citizen to build out theopen-source news platform software we were creating with The Texas Tribune. Smartly built on top of Django (itself a venture born in journalism), the system is extremely modular and tailored to the varied needs of online newsrooms. It's a CMS for scheduled.

I wrote servers to support mobile applications. In my last project, I was building a server that allows interactive content for/syncing to live television broadcasts. This system supports four client applications for four different shows on three networks including the Oprah Winfrey Network with Oprah's return to television. Previously I wrote the server.

This was a fun one. After stringing around Cisco radios for three months (see previous position), I became a teacher for the spring trimester and taught two classes for juniors and seniors—Web Design with Adobe Dreamweaver and Intro Programming in C++.Dreamweaver was the GUI facade to learning semantic markup and the separation of content from.

Remember when the economy dropped like a rock in late 2008? Plans changed and I crafted an opportunity to bring my extreme-conditions networking experience to my high-school by expanding their wireless LAN into the more remote locations of campus.I bridged the main network to a mile-distant, off-campus ski area with some LMR-400, lightning protection, an.

My perfect job? Maybe...maybe. But it didn't pay well, I bounced around on grant funding and I needed to expand professionally. Still, I lived on the highest mountain in the northeastern US. Listen to all these other great parts:I upgraded the bandwidth to the summit facility to 60 times faster than spec'd and implemented by an expensive consultant. We're.

Many people have said to me, "I wish I'd done this out of college!" Yup, I knew it was a good plan.I lived in five backcountry huts in the White Mountains in close quarters with varying crews of 3-10 or on my own as a caretaker. 100+ hikers would stay overnight and we'd cook meals, pack in food, carry out trash and take care of the place. Search and rescue.

I left work at work and it was a nice feeling. I was satisfied by this job. Interactions with customers were often great. I still remember selling a tent to a motorcycle camper, helping a thru-hiker pick the right boots and explaining snowshoes to new winter walkers. My technogeek interest in performance and cool features easily transferred into.

I was the first student Skidmore ever hired into the telecom department. Right away I continued what I'd done in high-school—network and hardware support. I could get through a Dell support rep to an Airborne Express shipping label for a replacement part in no time. Back when every campus in America was freaking out about Napster, I was watching Fluke.
