Summary
👤
SeniorEli Heady is a Staff Software Engineer with 11 years of hands-on experience building and operating cloud-native, Linux/Unix, and DevOps systems across AWS, GCP, HPC, and embedded platforms. He has driven high-volume media processing, CI/CD, and release engineering at scale, and has deep expertise in container orchestration, virtualization, performance analysis, and security controls. Eli’s background spans everything from supercomputer packaging and reproducible scientific environments to enterprise-grade immutable infrastructure and policy-driven IaC for PCI-regulated clients. He frequently blends Python and Go tooling with Terraform, Jenkins, Kubernetes, and Vault to automate complex delivery pipelines and incident response. Comfortable in both consulting and staff roles, he’s known for translating incident postmortems into measurable reliability improvements and for “unclogging the tubes” when critical data flows stall. Based in the Greater Pittsburgh region, Eli brings a systems-first mindset that pairs OS internals knowledge with pragmatic ops-dev craftsmanship.
