A diversely skilled software architect and engineer. I bring years of software development and architecture experience to crafting infrastructure as code through TDD, CI/CD, and other agile methods.My career has been spent at the forefront of the evolution of the internet. Early in my career, I served as an early employee at Blue Martini Software, a company that transformed e-Commerce with what was, at the time, the fastest-growing application software start-up in history. I revolutionized a print media mainstay, Consumer Reports, by devising and implementing their digital transformation strategy, bringing their extensive data offerings into the modern age. As an early adopter of Agile Methodologies, modernized the way software was developed and deployed at the US Department of Defense. When online transactions became mission-critical for big brands, I worked to build highly available and fault-tolerant enterprise commerce systems at Kohls.com. As the world learned the term “web scale,” I turned to the cloud to automate systems that scaled from idle to one million users in minutes. The technique came to be known as “DevOps,” using what we now call “Infrastructure-as-Code.” Today I help the enterprise execute its cloud strategy, presence, and migration.Areas of Expertise:Technical Team LeadershipAWS Cloud ArchitectureTest-Driven DevelopmentCI/CD PipelinesAutomationInfrastructure as CodeAgile MethodologiesCloud MigrationCloud-native applicationsPython, Java, JavascriptDocker / Virtualization strategies and implementationKubernetes
