Summary
Chris Wiggins is a seasoned infrastructure-focused software engineer with 11 years of experience designing, automating, and right-sizing large-scale deployments across cloud and bare-metal environments. He has repeatedly driven cost savings and reliability improvements—architecting multi-datacenter Kubernetes clusters, cutting storage costs 10x with SAN deduplication, and delivering autoscaling and observability improvements that reduced downtime and support times. Equally comfortable with Terraform, Crossplane, Ansible/Chef, and GitOps, he blends systems-level Linux administration with pragmatic tooling in Go and Python to streamline CI/CD and day-to-day operations. Chris has a track record of shipping production-grade blockchain RPC clusters and building operator-friendly tooling (including a Go TUI for provider APIs), showing a knack for solving niche operational challenges at scale. Based in the Boise area, he brings both hands-on execution and infrastructure architecture experience across startups and enterprise migrations.
