Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJohn Krukoff is a Lead Cloud Engineer in Denver with 12 years of experience building reliable, auditable infrastructure and deployment tooling across Google Cloud, AWS, and Kubernetes. He specializes in infrastructure-as-code and automation—shifting from Python and AWS CDK to Terraform-led GCP automation and compliance at TIAA. His background spans custom Kubernetes tooling, container orchestration, and CI/CD and testing toolchains, with hands-on work in Go, Python, and Erlang throughout enterprise and startup environments. Known for a pragmatic focus on reliability, he pairs deep systems-level knowledge with developer-friendly automation that reduces toil. He’s equally comfortable authoring back-end APIs as he is operationalizing cloud platforms, and often brings static analysis and test-first thinking into infrastructure work. Based in Denver, he blends long-term production ops experience (dating back to Linux systems administration) with modern cloud-native practices.
