Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolColby Stoker is a multidisciplinary systems engineer and full-stack developer with 25+ years designing and managing complex electro-mechanical and biological control systems, from NASA’s closed-loop Advanced Life Support research to large-scale, computer-controlled nurseries producing 20,000 plants annually. Comfortable across Linux system administration, containerized architectures, Rust/Go/Lua/Bash development, and DevSecOps, he maps and rebuilds signal paths rather than just troubleshooting. He pairs hands-on open-source software and CI/CD experience with practical environmental engineering—having built state-driven controls for seedling production and hydro-mechanical systems—and has developed epidemiological GIS and healthcare data tools. Now based in Calais, Maine, Colby is pursuing nursing credentials while seeking roles at the intersection of medical science and systems innovation, bringing uncommon domain breadth shaped by lived experience in advocacy, recovery, and community leadership.
