Seattle, Washington, United States
Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolColum Mcgaley is a Principal Engineer with a decade of experience building and operating resilient, cloud-native infrastructure for companies from startups to hyperscale platforms. He specializes in site reliability, cloud IaaS (notably deep Oracle Cloud bare-metal and IPv6 work), Kubernetes/GitOps migrations, and fleet-scale OS/hardware fixes that reduced outages across tens of thousands of servers. Pragmatic about technical debt, he champions iterative architecture and reversible decisions to keep systems adaptable rather than brittle. He’s hands-on in incidents (yes, he’ll get woken up at 4am) and also drives long-term fixes—from firmware and vendor collaboration to Rust tooling that standardizes network config. Based in Seattle, he pairs operational rigor with product-minded engineering and a founder’s perspective from building cloud services and big-data platforms. Outside work, his GitHub (volfco) and dry sense of humor hint at a tinkerer who prefers solving gnarly, system-level problems over icing on the cake.
