Summary
Jody Shumaker is a Senior DevOps Engineer with 11+ years of hands-on experience designing and operating end-to-end CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure, and deployment automation. He has a deep hardware-to-cloud background—managing switches, SANs, servers and virtual/cloud platforms like vSphere/ESXi, OpenStack, and Kubernetes—while migrating traditional installs toward containerized workflows. Comfortable writing features, tests, and automation, he pairs development skills with systems-level troubleshooting and monitoring (Prometheus, Zabbix, Nagios) to keep complex environments reliable. Jody excels at learning new tools quickly, connecting disparate systems, and showing teams how to use them effectively. Based in Northborough, MA, he spent over a decade evolving Accusoft’s engineering practice before joining NVIDIA, bringing a pragmatic blend of legacy systems expertise and modern cloud-native practice.
