Summary
Joey Marianer is a pragmatic software engineer with two decades of experience building and operating large-scale distributed systems, from ad-reporting pipelines at Google to multi-cloud infrastructure for startups. He combines deep SRE instincts—having led global Chubby deployments and automated weeks-long rollouts—with practical backend and DevOps work, including Rails upgrades, CI/CD consolidation, and Kubernetes-driven, cloud-agnostic deployments. At startups he frequently serves as the first or sole engineer, architecting end-to-end systems (Squid’s client-server DB library and multi-cloud CDKTF pipelines) and mentoring newer engineers as products and ops mature. He has a track record of reducing toil and improving performance—15% faster startup times at Rescale, automated scaling at Instructure—and enjoys being dropped into unfamiliar problems to untangle complexity. Based in Lynnwood, WA, Joey balances systems-level rigor with a UI tinkerer’s attention to detail, and still finds time to fix things even when they involve debugging hardware on an aircraft.
