Summary
Ashley Newman is a CI/CD engineer with a decade of technical experience who blends a disciplined, data-driven mindset from a meteorology background with hands-on DevOps and automation expertise. After earning a BS in Meteorology and teaching themself Python, Ashley moved into DevOps roles where they delivered measurable process improvements—most notably cutting WebLogic certificate renewal time from 72 hours to 1 hour and automating repository provisioning across 60+ Azure DevOps repos. Skilled in Chef, Python, and Java-based tooling, they’ve upgraded dependencies across microservices and built infrastructure to scale developer productivity. Based in Livonia, Michigan, Ashley is equally comfortable writing scripts that save days of work as they are designing reliable CI/CD pipelines, and they bring an uncommon combination of operational rigor and curiosity about code quality and developer habits.
