Summary
Gregory Boyce is a Senior Software Engineer II with 10+ years specializing in Linux and distributed systems, currently back on Akamai’s Linux OS team. He has a strong track record leading teams and shipping predictable OS release processes, triaging upstream vulnerabilities, and debugging complex package and build issues across Debian-based environments. Gregory blends hands-on engineering—building hermetic build environments, Terraform-managed AWS resources, Kubernetes/Mesos ops, and containerization—with practical security stewardship from earlier security operations roles. He’s comfortable across the stack from low-level OS internals to platform tooling and has led both DevOps and data warehouse teams. Based in Worcester, MA, he pairs pragmatic leadership and hiring experience with a curious, authorial mindset hinted at by his “Stack Half Full” GitHub persona.
