Jason Harley is a Staff Software Engineer with over two decades of experience in operations, architecture, and systems engineering, and 11 years focused in software roles across cloud-native and high-frequency finance environments. He excels at making platforms more humane to deploy, operate, and reason about, blending hands-on engineering with technical leadership and team coaching. His recent work includes leading enterprise API and Terraform provider efforts at Honeycomb and continuing platform-scale work at Index Exchange. Jason brings deep expertise in AWS, Kubernetes, Terraform, and Go, and a track record of modernizing multi-region, resilient infrastructures. He frequently serves as the bridge between product, design, and engineering, advocating for practical, operable systems rather than theoretical purity.
