Summary
Allison Wilbur is a Senior DevOps Engineer with 12 years of experience building and hardening developer tooling, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud-native deployments from her base in Austin, Texas. She has deep hands-on experience migrating and operating critical services—most recently moving GitLab to a Helm-based GKE deployment and creating reusable pipeline templates that accelerated teams across the organization. Earlier work spans QA leadership and automation at eBay and platform image release and validation at Sauce Labs, giving her a practical edge in observability, incident response, and resilient release processes. As a consultant she has implemented cloud-based solutions for customers, and she frequently blends software engineering rigor (Java, OOD, algorithms) with pragmatic DevOps practices. Notably, she has driven transformations that replace brittle, single-tenant build systems with ephemeral Kubernetes clusters, reducing toil and improving reliability.
