MORE ABOUT ME: With 25+ years of development experience I have been specializing in GoLang development, Kubernetes/Docker, and related DevOps over the past many years. My most recent experience was working on the Kubernetes Operator team at SingleStore where I was helped streamline many of their existing processes and added the ability to live debug the operator locally to aid in developing and diagnosing issues, something that was previously much more cumbersome. Prior to that at HPE I automated vCenter using HashiCorp's Packer and VMware's govc to build both Ubuntu Linux ISOs and then VMware-specific OVAs to be distributed to customers and on OnPrem in a VMs to support HPE's Greenlake Cloud Platform. This build process runs on GitHub Actions on a custom runner as well as locally on macOS or Ubuntu. I have a strong emphasis on writing robust code and on testing, and am currently excited to work with any of these methodologies and technologies: Microservices, RESTful APIs, gPRC, GraphQL, command line tools, GitHub Actions, CI/CD, and Kubernetes. I also worked on an open-source Docker-based local development solution including packaging existing applications in Docker containers and writing microservices and command line (CLI) tools using Linux, Bash and GoLang. Finally, I have significant experience with SQL — MySQL, MS SQL and most recently SIngleStore — although SQL almost feels like table stakes these days as mastering cloud computing technologies is what differentiates the leading developers of today.
