Don Bauer is a Principal Product Manager and seasoned DevOps leader with 14+ years building and modernizing large-scale, resilient web platforms across finance, media, and enterprise software. He combines hands-on engineering (Golang, Docker, Kubernetes, AWS) with product and operational leadership, having led global DevOps teams, standardized tooling across hundreds of projects, and reduced recovery windows from hours to seconds. Don has repeatedly driven migrations from legacy stacks to containerized, IaC-driven environments, cutting deploy times from days to minutes while scaling teams and coverage internationally. He is a community-minded Docker Captain and automation evangelist who treats everything as automatable, and who builds bespoke CI/CD and observability systems integrating ELK, Instana, and custom tooling. Notably, he has orchestrated complex cloud consolidations and disaster-recovery designs involving multi-terabyte datasets and cross-cloud migrations. Based in Texas, he pairs pragmatic engineering with a talent for operationalizing standards that enable single-click project creation and zero-downtime deployments.
