Allison Doami is a Member of Technical Staff with a decade of experience building cloud-native infrastructure and developer tooling, currently at Microsoft AI after leading core and data infrastructure engineering at the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative. She specializes in Terraform-backed platform work—managing Snowflake, Databricks, EKS, and self-hosted services like Superset and JupyterHub—and has shepherded the Snowflake Terraform provider through significant improvements now used beyond CZI. Comfortable across backend, DevOps, and developer experience, she has driven secure, scalable deployment patterns (Argus, ArgoCD, Helm) and even acted as a pragmatic TPM to align engineering efforts with organizational goals. Based in Mountain View, she combines systems-level rigor with product sensitivity to make complex data and ML workflows accessible to scientists and educators. Outside engineering, she founded a women-in-engineering group at UCLA and runs a freelance photography practice, reflecting an interest in community building and creative problem solving.
