Senior🎓
Top SchoolJason Chinsen is a platform engineer with 12 years of experience building and automating resilient infrastructure for financial services and SaaS companies. He blends deep expertise in configuration management (Puppet, Hiera, Chocolatey), CI/CD tooling (Jenkins, UrbanCode, CircleCI), and cloud-native platforms (AWS, Azure, EKS/AKS) to deliver repeatable deployments and improved developer experience. At firms from RBC and TD to Bitbuy and The Airline Software Company he has led upgrades, migrations and toolchains—often creating bespoke tooling (Golang cluster bootstrappers) and operational runbooks to simplify cluster provisioning and monitoring. Comfortable across languages from Java and C++ to Python and Bash, he pairs hands-on coding with infrastructure architecture and mentoring, and co-organizes the Toronto Puppet User Group. Notably, he has driven cross-platform Puppet orchestration projects and observability integrations that tied autoscaling to external metrics like MQ queue depth.
