Summary
Eric Frankenberger is a Senior Platform Engineer with nine years of hands-on experience designing resilient automation and CI/CD platforms across Azure and AWS. He specializes in scalable test and deployment infrastructure—having built an autoscaling Selenium Grid that ran 16,000+ tests/day and authored tooling like an Azure-native compliance logger and Terraform-based environment bootstrappers. His background as a traveling systems administrator and pit crew member for top IndyCar teams (9 Indy 500s, 100+ races) gives him a proven ability to perform under extreme pressure and deliver reliable systems in constrained, high-stakes environments. He drives org-wide GitOps and IaC adoption, reduces operational toil through automation, and mentors engineers on resilient system architecture. A pragmatic contributor who blends infrastructure engineering with creative problem-solving, he also maintains public projects and documentation on GitHub. Based in Indianapolis, he’s focused on continuing to scale robust, auditable platforms that accelerate engineering velocity.
