Chip Carnes is an engineering manager with a decade of experience leading teams to multiply engineering productivity through platform-driven developer experience and agentic workflows. He combines hands-on systems design—authoring Rust and Python tools, greenfield CLIs to spin up full-stack Kubernetes environments, and financial/auth backend systems—with a people-first management style focused on individualized career growth and sustainable workloads. At Sure he shifted teams from stream-aligned to platform engineering, shaped AI infrastructure and sharding strategies, and instituted incident-response frameworks and SLAs that improved resilience for client-specific deployments. Earlier work includes building financial-critical systems and automated bookkeeping at Eventbrite and data visualization apps that boosted customer growth at Juice Analytics. Based in Denver, he brings a musician’s discipline to engineering—often baking specialty rye or riding gravel when not architecting resilient infra.
