Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolAdam Sherwood is an Automation Engineer with 13 years of experience building reliable, maintainable software and infrastructure, currently focused on Go, Python and AWS at DNB in Bergen. A former USAF electronics technician, he pairs disciplined systems-thinking and hardware-savvy troubleshooting with modern cloud-native practices and strong DevOps experience. He has led engineering teams and hands-on delivery at ClearDATA, automated CI/CD and provisioning pipelines, and contributed full‑stack improvements to community projects such as Raycast extensions. Adam values simplicity, elegant solutions, and open source tooling (Linux, Git, Spacemacs), and he enjoys tackling problems that blend software, systems, and real-world operations. Beyond engineering he’s a lifelong tinkerer — from Commodore 64 BASIC to Rubik’s Cubes and amateur astronomy — which fuels a persistent curiosity for new languages like Rust and practical problem solving.
