Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolGreg Hardy is a Principal Software Engineer with over a decade of experience building cloud, networking and telecom systems, now leading Partner Integrations at Puppet where he delivered certified ServiceNow applications and orchestration connectors. He combines low-level performance engineering (C/C++) and systems design from his telecom and acceleration work with modern cloud-native tooling across AWS, Azure, GCP, containers and IaC. Greg’s recent focus on ServiceNow ITOM, Puppet spokes and Puppet-to-AWS integrations reflects a talent for making complex automation and CI workflows reliable at scale. He’s comfortable across languages (Ruby, Python, Go, Java) and has driven production-grade solutions that bridge enterprise monitoring (Splunk), virtualization (VMware) and cloud orchestration. Based in Belfast, he brings a pragmatic, test-driven approach—evidenced by his work fixing acceptance tests and release prep for puppetlabs’ AWS modules—that keeps open-source integrations robust in real environments.
