Summary
Dennis Sauvé is a Platform Engineer II with a decade of hands-on experience building developer-centric infrastructure and developer experience tooling, primarily on Azure using Pulumi, GitHub Actions, TypeScript, and Python. He specializes in reusable IaC components, internal SDKs and registries, and GitOps-driven CI/CD that speed developer onboarding and reduce operational friction. At Washington Trust Bank he led platform automation at scale—creating the Frazure Pulumi library, observability stacks, and pipelines that cut boilerplate and fixed an IaC misconfiguration that saved substantial cloud spend. Comfortable bridging enterprise constraints and modern cloud patterns, he presents at conferences (Pulumi UP) and prefers solving hard problems in AI, open source, or environmental tech rather than fintech. Based in Spokane and an avid hiker and biker, he brings a pragmatic focus on developer empowerment and cost-conscious infrastructure.
