Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolGarrett Delfosse is a Senior Software Engineer with a decade of experience building scalable full‑stack and cloud-native systems from Richmond, VA. He specializes in Go, React, Kubernetes, Terraform and WebRTC, and has driven major infrastructure changes that scaled a product from ~20 to 1000+ concurrent workspaces and enabled closed-network deployments. Garrett led multi-regional and edge proxy rollouts, rebuilt cloud management layers that unlocked large enterprise deals, and implemented an auto-generated SDK to improve developer and customer experience. He’s equally comfortable in backend/DevOps roles—adding Datadog tracing, security headers, and secure cookie handling to production services—as in shipping browser-based tooling like a Postgres client over authenticated WebSocket proxies. A consistent open-source contributor (notably to the coder/coder project), he brings pragmatic engineering tradeoffs informed by production telemetry and cost-conscious operational improvements. His background in information technology management and hands-on ownership of CI/CD and traffic scaling mean he blends product thinking with deep systems execution.
