Mike Deeks is a Infra @ Braintrust at Braintrust. He possess expertise in linux, java, rest, mysql, php and 3 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "Working with Mike was always a pleasure. I only wished we have had the chance to work together in more projects. He's a very smart engineer who knows his stuff *very* well. He's well grounded, critical, analytical and is able to communicate his thoughts very clearly. He's not afraid of taking ownership of things and seeing things through. He's also very approachable and willing to work to find an appropriate middle ground for everyone. I was also nicely impressed with his can-do attitude that had him rolling up his sleeves and working at all levels of our systems, from networking (routing, DNS, datacenter work, etc.), Linux/UNIX administration/tools/processes/etc., to even coding on Java, owning and leading some other components developed in PHP and most recently even iOS development! Mike's a very stand-up guy who I hope I'll have the pleasure of working with again some time soon.", "Mike is one of the most productive people that I have ever had the pleasure to work with. His skill set is uncommonly broad, and his ability to tap into that skill set to quickly solve real-world problems is a true gift. Even more impressive is his fastidious eye, which simply does not allow details to slip through the cracks. Mike is also a remarkably intuitive and effective production troubleshooter. His cool head and sharp mind quickly made him into my favored partner whenever we were faced with a particularly sticky production incident. I can endorse Mike without hesitation. He would be an asset on any engineering team.", and "Unfortunately I did not get to work with Mike for very long. It was unfortunate because when I did get the chance to work with him, it was very clear how great of an engineer he was. Not only did Mike help streamline the build process and configure world-class Java environments, but he was also able to quickly pick up on new Java technologies and frameworks and be a excellent contributor to the software engineering efforts. I would recommend Mike as a key player on any engineering team. Hopefully we can work together in the future."
