Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolAdam Cornett is a pragmatic software engineer with four years of experience building and automating Java and .NET-based systems, and a strong focus on DevOps for Kubernetes ecosystems. He combines hands-on backend skills (J2EE, Spring, REST) and CI/CD tooling (Jenkins, CruiseControl, Microsoft Build) with practical experience hardening build and release flows—evident from contributions to operator-sdk and the aws-controllers-k8s code generator where he streamlined OLM bundle generation, image formatting, and dependency/security updates. Based in Phoenix, he brings full-lifecycle familiarity from IDEs to application servers (WebSphere, WebLogic, IIS) and version control systems (Git, SVN, TFS). Trained in computer engineering and computer science, Adam pairs disciplined engineering practices with a knack for automating repeatable deployment tasks that reduce friction between development and production.
