Summary
Brendan Tobolaski is a Senior DevOps Engineer with 14 years of experience designing and operating production infrastructure, most notably building Signal Vine’s entire stack from a three-tier VM deployment to Kubernetes and guiding it through product launch to a successful exit. He specializes in AWS, Kubernetes, automation, and zero-downtime deployment pipelines, and has a track record of evolving solutions as product requirements change. Based in West Fargo, ND, he pairs startup-scale engineering ownership with the discipline honed in earlier roles supporting scientific and enterprise systems. Brendan is comfortable spanning developer-local tooling to production-grade orchestration and has repeatedly automated environments to reduce toil and risk. He brings practical pragmatism—choosing and iterating on the right tools over time—rather than chasing the latest trends.
