Cloud Operations Manager
CurrentAs a Cloud Operations Manager, I can best describe my job like Scotty in Star Trek, Captain Kirk always wants more out of the engines and there’s no more to give. Well, maybe not quite! The cloud always has more computers, but living in production certainly makes warp core engineering look fun. Beginning as software engineer working with Java, JavaScript and databases and making significant overall changes like static code analysis, dependency scanning and better code coverage. Before cloud operations was a popularized job sector, I was promoted to Cloud operations manager and have since modernized iGrafx cloud infrastructure and improved many components of the iGrafx product suite on a global scale. Over the last 3 years I’ve accomplished:* Adding user synchronization capability (SCIM) using a microservice architecture* Continually improving cloud stability and deployment processes* Migrated source control and CI to modern cloud based build and test pipeline* Migrated development/production workflows to container based flows* Configured and migrated to terraform* Configured OAuth flows and modern authentication paradigms* Leading our Kubernetes adoption
