Summary
John Lowry is a seasoned Security Engineer with 14 years of hands-on experience securing hybrid and cloud-native environments, currently focused on cloud security across AWS, GCP, and Azure at Cambia Health Solutions. He blends infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, Ansible) and cloud-native tooling with pragmatic scripting in Python and Go to automate CSPM, IaC monitoring, and container security for EKS/ECS/Kubernetes deployments. His background spans vulnerability management, IDS/IPS, PKI, networking, and unix/linux administration, giving him a full-spectrum view from low-level encryption and SSL best practices to large-scale orchestration. John has a history of shifting security left—implementing Puppet and CI-friendly controls—and building repeatable monitoring and remediation workflows. Based in Portland, Oregon, he pairs deep operational experience (Nessus, Snort, OSSEC, Checkpoint, Cisco/Juniper) with a knack for turning legacy environments into auditable, automated platforms. Colleagues rely on him for pragmatic, cross-disciplinary solutions that bridge networking, infosec, and developer workflows.
