Sam Powers is a Sre at Iovation Inc.. He possess expertise in troubleshooting, windows server, networking, vmware, servers and 39 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "I worked with Sam for 9 years. It was clear from the start that Sam needed to move from QA into the operations space because his desire to understand the architecture at a deep level was too limited in a QA role. Once in the SRE space, Sam dug in and quickly became the guru across multiple departments. I value Sam's extensive knowledge base but even more so appreciate his willingness to step away from the screen and offer a hand to anymore, regardless of technical background. Why are we not autoscaling services in Kubernetes? How complicated will it be to migrate our on-prem architecture to the GCP? What's wrong with my puppet code? Ask Sam. Sam is "THAT person", the technical individual at a company that is helpful for day-to-day issues and absolutely essential for large-scale initiatives. I would jump at the chance to join any team that Sam is a member of." and "I had the pleasure of managing Sam during his tenure as a Staff Site Reliability Engineer at TransUnion. I can attest that he is a rare breed of technical talent. Sam is a legitimate 10x developer.
