Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolJakob Vendegna is a pragmatic cloud-native engineer based in Denver who specializes in transitioning teams to CI/CD-first workflows, containerizing monoliths into microservices, and building production platforms on AWS and GCP. With hands-on Linux/Unix experience and fluency across Python, Bash, Go, JavaScript, and Ruby, he prefers the right tool for the job and often wraps multi-language utilities in lightweight NodeJS CLIs. He’s comfortable with Kubernetes, Terraform/CloudFormation, Docker, service mesh, Vault, and a broad operational stack—including Traefik, Consul, Redis, MySQL, and RabbitMQ—having built bespoke CI/CD solutions from containers up. A practical problem-solver with an AAS in Computer and Information Systems (3.95 GPA), Jakob brings candid communication and integrity to teams and is always open to trying new clouds (Azure badge, anyone?).
