| SEEKING WORK: Seattle / Remote I'm potentially leaving a full time gig and looking for a short term contract. I'm a devops / systems engineer with a ton of AWS and puppet experience. My main responsibilities of late have been migrating huge production applications out of a traditional hand built datacenter environment into a fully automated and autoscaled AWS environment, as well as being a lead on the architecture of brand new environments for new projects. I am largely self managed and independent, and I pride myself on thorough information discovery prior to building anything. I also complete projects with excellent documentation. Some bullet points: - 12 year career in building and supporting production web applications - 8 years experience on AWS - 3 years experience with puppet - Wearing a developer hat, I have also built production stable applications in rails, php, and nodejs - At my current job, I am a lead engineer on supporting our flagship products supporting $100MM+ revenue - In 3 years I have built, automated, and/or maintained upwards of 110 separate production environments - In general, I don't maintain an ego, I don't add risk by way of over-confident planning, and I am huge on transparency and documentation. That's a brief introduction. Contact me if this sounds like what you are looking for and I can send you a resume. I'm interested in finding the right fit, where I can jump in and quickly start adding value. jdvogt+hn@gmail.com |
