Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolChris Pappas is a pragmatic technology leader with 11+ years building full-stack, observability-focused systems and leading engineering teams across startups and enterprise environments. As Director of IT at Canadian Dental Management he blends hands-on development in Go, PHP, Typescript and Grafana/Prometheus with infrastructure renewal and platform strategy. His career includes shipping Grafana plugin work and a Golang GraphQL backend at Shopify, and running the full-stack AgDealer platform—owning everything from Nginx and CI runners to Elasticsearch ETL and Laravel APIs. Comfortable in both devops and product-facing roles, he repeatedly bridges gaps between engineers, product owners, and operations to deliver measurable reliability and developer velocity. Colleagues describe him as someone who values long-term professional relationships as much as clean, shipping code. He’s also the rare director who can tweak a Prometheus alert by day and fire up the BBQ by night.
