Summary
Cassidy Nelemans is a pragmatic software engineer and operations expert with 11 years of experience building and migrating high-availability systems for enterprise clients. Based in Minneapolis, they’ve led datacenter and cloud migrations, rearchitected hosting for a $500M+ company, and designed HIPAA-compliant microservices on AWS while advancing from operations engineer to senior operations and software engineering roles at Clockwork. With a Business degree and IT minor, Cassidy pairs systems-oriented technical skills (Linux, MySQL, Puppet, Git, networking protocols) with strong communication and project leadership from large-scale POS rollouts to cross-functional program management. They bring a generalist’s breadth—comfortable scripting in SQL, PHP, Batch and familiar with JavaScript, Java and C#—and a knack for automating toil, evidenced by tools that saved hundreds of man-hours monthly. Notably, they blend engineering craft with operational rigor, making complex migrations and reliability work look routine.
