Summary
Edward Adasiak is a seasoned cloud and reliability engineer with over two decades of hands-on experience building and operating high-scale SaaS platforms, currently leading Developer Platforms Infrastructure and Reliability at Adobe. He has driven large multi-tenant, multi-cloud container platforms and CI/CD pipelines, shepherding migrations to AWS and introducing elasticity through Mesos, Docker, and Jenkins to enable zero-downtime deployments. His work spans deep operational remediation—sharding databases, stabilizing Redis with Sentinel, and standardizing monitoring and log analytics—to strategic platform design that reduces toil and improves developer velocity. Based in Lafayette, CA, Edward blends systems-level craftsmanship (from VMWare and bare metal to modern cloud-native stacks) with a knack for winning organizational buy-in for platform transformations. He often surfaces non-obvious improvements, such as leveraging configuration management and automation to collapse provisioning time and make teams more autonomous. Pragmatic, technically curious, and experienced across both ops and platform engineering, he excels at turning brittle services into resilient, scalable infrastructure.
