Senior🎓
Top SchoolCory Johnson is an experienced architect with over 15 years in systems engineering, automation, and cloud/VMware operations, currently leading architecture at Optum in the Minneapolis–St. Paul area. He excels at reducing operational toil through scripting and automation—PowerShell, shell, and orchestration tools—to streamline installs, migrations, and recurring maintenance across Windows and Unix environments. Cory’s background spans security-focused roles (encrypting VMs and data control), private cloud engineering, and large-scale process automation for scheduling and on-call systems, demonstrating both hands-on troubleshooting and strategic improvement. He’s known for turning vendor-dependent tasks into repeatable, auditable internal processes and for speeding legacy systems (e.g., job schedulers) dramatically through automation. Comfortable adapting to new technologies, Cory pairs deep operational knowledge with strong communication and customer-focused delivery.
