Summary
Brent Clark is a seasoned cloud and infrastructure engineer with over two decades of hands-on experience securing and operating Unix, Linux, Windows and cloud environments. Currently a Lead Cloud Engineer, he has led teams through large-scale cloud migrations, built observability platforms on Kubernetes, and managed caching, messaging and search stacks (Kafka/MSK, Elasticsearch) while enforcing SOX and PCI compliance. He combines deep information assurance expertise—a Master’s in Information Assurance and extensive work with vulnerability tools like Nessus, Metasploit and NMAP—with practical SRE instincts for incident management and SaaS tooling (CloudFlare, PagerDuty). Known for translating audit requirements into operational controls, he’s equally comfortable scripting infrastructure as mentoring engineers on secure cloud practices. Based in Longmont, CO, Brent brings a rare blend of security-first thinking and production-grade cloud engineering across both legacy datacenter and modern AWS environments.
