Summary
Anthony Butt is a pragmatic technology leader and CTO with eight years of hands-on engineering and executive experience building cloud-native, DevSecOps-focused platforms for defense and govtech customers. He has led teams from principal engineer to VP-level, architecting Kubernetes- and Istio-based B2B PaaS solutions, automating secure CI/CD pipelines, and ensuring NIST/DoD compliance for mission-critical systems. As founder of a consultancy, he translated product fit into government readiness, and as a Distinguished Engineer mentored engineers while shaping product strategy. His career began in the US Air Force and JSOC, giving him deep operational networking and secure systems experience that informs practical, security-first design decisions. Anthony blends tactical engineering chops with boardroom-level technology advising, thriving where rigorous compliance and rapid delivery intersect. Based in Sanford, NC, he’s a self-described K8s fanboy who quietly excels at turning complex security requirements into repeatable platform abstractions.
