Summary
Brian Wood is a Senior Developer Support Engineer with a deep, hands-on background in Linux-centric DevOps, CI/CD, and cloud-native tooling, backed by sixteen years of experience and advanced degrees in computer software engineering. He has led infrastructure and deployment efforts for large-scale enterprise systems—most recently overseeing CI/CD, Kubernetes/helm, and operational support for multiple IBM Sterling OMS and IBM MQ instances at General Motors and now supporting developers at JFrog. Brian blends strong bash and SQL skills with practical pipeline automation (Jenkins, Azure TFS/CARA) and has a track record of migrating and modernizing build/deploy processes into cloud-native patterns. He mentors junior engineers, designs batch-to-cloud execution strategies, and maintains complex non-prod clusters spanning dozens of namespaces—an often overlooked competency that keeps production risk low. Based in Georgia, he brings a pragmatic mix of support-first mindset and system-level engineering that helps cross-functional teams deliver reliable commerce and messaging platforms.
