Summary
Chris Erwin is a Site Reliability Engineer with 11 years of experience building cloud-native infrastructure, automation, and resilient deployment pipelines across AWS, Kubernetes (EKS), Terraform, Ansible, and CI/CD tooling. He has deep SRE and incident-management chops honed both in enterprise roles (Corteva, Kuali) and through hands-on, high-stakes work like automating HPC clusters and complex multi-service Java monorepos into Kubernetes. Chris pairs a developer-first approach to tooling with operational rigor — designing monitoring architectures, writing reusable automation (Go, Python, Terraform), and improving deployability and cost visibility. His background leading IT and disaster-recovery for a quantitative trading firm gives him a practical appreciation for reliability under pressure, and his volunteer firefighting experience underscores real-world incident leadership. Based in West Chester, PA, he excels at bridging dev and ops to deliver production systems that are observable, testable, and repeatable.
