Summary
Harry Staley is a senior software engineer and data scientist with 11 years of experience building scalable, mission-focused analytics and cybersecurity applications across government and industry. He blends practical data engineering (PySpark, ETL, Postgres/PostGIS) with software delivery skills—containerization, Kubernetes, WireGuard automation, and SIEM tooling—to move R&D prototypes into operational environments. At the intersection of defense and education, he has led Army-wide data initiatives and now teaches cybersecurity and Python to prepare the next generation of practitioners. Harry holds an MS in Computer Science from Georgia Tech and pairs that formal training with multiple nanodegrees and hands-on acquisition experience, enabling him to translate complex technical problems into deployable solutions. A habitual mentor and technical interviewer, he’s equally comfortable designing data pipelines for enterprise analytics as he is crafting test frameworks and VPN management tools for secure deployments.
