Senior🎓
Top SchoolDave Solbes is a Senior DevOps Engineer with 14 years of hands-on experience building and operating large-scale, multi-datacenter and cloud-native systems. He has led and grown distributed teams, designed resilient authentication and secret-management solutions, and driven adoption of infrastructure-as-code and automation across VMware and AWS environments. At Oracle and Webtrends he combined deep Linux and tooling expertise (Chef, Terraform, Jenkins, Vault, Rundeck) with mentoring and pragmatic architecture guidance focused on performance, scaling, and reliability. Comfortable both in management and IC roles, he pairs C-level communication—whitepapers and presentations—with day-to-day on-call troubleshooting and system design. Based in Arkansas and open to remote roles due to an upcoming relocation, he’s known for making “impossible” interoperability work and for teaching teams why systems behave, not just how to follow runbooks.
