Summary
Alan Porter is a seasoned full-stack software developer with nine years of professional experience and deep expertise across mobile, web, and embedded Linux systems. He has built and shipped secure, high-availability products from device drivers and telecom clusters to Angular UIs, Java REST services, and cloud deployments on AWS and OpenNebula. At small agile teams and startups-turned-enterprises (Lancope→Cisco, Tekelec→Oracle), he has owned work spanning front-end, back-end, dev-ops, and security. His background includes embedded Linux for consumer appliances and early mobile internet prototypes, giving him a rare end-to-end perspective from silicon to user experience. Alan is as comfortable optimizing kernel- or driver-level behavior as he is containerizing services and automating deployments, and he brings a strong interest in usability and modern developer workflows. Based in Cary, NC, he combines practical engineering with a passion for security and operational best practices.
