Summary
Andrew Shoell is a Senior DevSecOps Engineer and SRE with eight years of experience designing and operating secure, scalable Kubernetes platforms for both commercial and Department of Defense customers. He currently anchors the Big Bang value stream for Platform One, driving architecture, Helm chart development, Terraform IaC, and Kubernetes hardening for mission-critical U.S. Air Force initiatives. Andrew combines hands-on implementation with leadership—onboarding teams, reviewing merges, and shaping release processes—while championing open-source collaboration across Mattermost, GitLab, and GitHub. He has a track record of introducing security tooling (e.g., Fortify) and automating upgrade lifecycles that revived and positioned bbctl as the default Bigbang management tool. Based in Ogden, Utah, he pairs technical depth with an MBA, and his public GitHub repositories provide a direct window into his practical coding and infrastructure work.
