Summary
Andy Blendermann is a Denver-based Senior Software Engineer with a decade of experience building secure, backend systems and cloud-native infrastructure, currently focused on transformational security work. He brings deep Go and Kubernetes expertise from his time on the Rancher team at SUSE and has repeatedly applied container orchestration to real-world projects since early internships. His background spans data-intensive platforms, ETL automation, and cross-domain solutions for sensitive network and pharmaceutical data, reflecting a strong grounding in secure, high-throughput engineering. Andy pairs a BS in Computer Science with hands-on systems work—from designing REST APIs and storage platforms to containerizing security filters—bringing a pragmatic, strategic approach to complex technical problems. Notably, he has blended research-oriented roles (NIST) with production engineering, giving him an uncommon perspective on reproducible, auditable systems.
