Senior Infrastructure Engineer at Aerodome
Englewood, Colorado, United States
Summary
👤
SeniorDavid Anderson is a Senior Infrastructure Engineer with over two decades of hands-on experience and 12 years focused on cloud-native systems, SRE, and DevOps. He has led engineering teams from early-stage builds to acquisition, notably growing and bootstrapping Scout Monitoring’s APM product to a $10M exit while running remote teams and overseeing post-acquisition technical transitions. Expert in AWS, Ruby on Rails, Go, Python, Kafka, Terraform and observability tooling, he designs resilient, high-throughput ingestion pipelines and zero-data-loss fail-safes that processed terabytes per day. As a founder of Aktiom Networks he built deep networking, virtualization, and automation expertise, and contributed to SaltStack community work. Now at Aerodome, he applies that blend of product, infra and security experience to operationalize AI-driven drone systems for public safety. Colleagues describe him as a pragmatic engineer-leader who pairs low-level diagnostic skill (memory profiling, pprof, rbtrace) with strategic roadmap and OKR-driven execution.
