Christopher Clement is a Lead Platform Engineer with a decade of experience designing and operating large-scale infrastructure, currently shaping platform reliability and DevOps at SignalWire. He progressed internally from Lead DevOps Engineer to DevOps Manager and now leads platform initiatives, demonstrating a blend of hands-on implementation and team-level technical leadership. His background includes architecting high-throughput data flows and integrations at the University of Pennsylvania, where he processed millions of bibliographic records and developed a custom Ruby gem to simplify Alma API interactions. Christopher has deep experience migrating and automating institutional repositories and digital archives (Islandora, ArchivesSpace, Omeka) across higher-education and cultural institutions, often provisioning AWS resources and scripting large bulk ingestions. He pairs an MS in Computer Science with practical systems administration skills—managing fleets of virtual servers, Ansible automation, Docker Swarm, and replication strategies—to deliver secure, auditable preservation systems. Colleagues value his ability to translate archival and library domain complexity into reliable, automated platform solutions.
