Cory Kaufman-schofield is a Michigan-based DevOps and platform engineer with roughly 14–20 years of hands-on experience building and operating cloud-native systems. He specializes in Ruby, Node.js, PostgreSQL, Terraform, and Kubernetes, and has a strong track record migrating legacy services to managed Kubernetes and optimizing cloud costs. Cory has delivered platform-level solutions across startups and mid-stage companies—from private multi-cloud DNS and PostgreSQL PITR with WAL streaming to automating infra via Terraform and Kubernetes ExternalDNS. His background straddles backend development and SRE, enabling him to both write reliable application services and design the infrastructure that keeps them running. As an independent consultant and owner of Metamora Software, he’s executed diverse projects (scraping services with regional proxy meshes, IoT capacity planning, React/Rails UX work) that reveal an appetite for pragmatic, cross-disciplinary problem solving. He pairs a practical engineering mindset with academic grounding in information studies, which helps him translate operational complexity into repeatable, auditable systems.
