Senior🎓
Top SchoolDan Emmons is a cloud-focused systems engineer with 15 years of hands-on experience building, operating, and troubleshooting large-scale OpenStack and Linux environments. His unconventional path—from self-taught Linux admin at an NGO in the Philippines to high-impact roles at Rackspace, Blizzard (credited in major game releases), and now Canonical—reflects a mix of deep operational practice, scripting (Bash/Python) and project ownership. He excels at bridging support and engineering, resolving the toughest escalations while delivering long-running infrastructure improvements like automated testing pipelines and containerized service deployments. Comfortable across ops and code, he has contributed upstream to OpenStack and repeatedly replatformed production clouds to improve performance, resiliency, and cost.
