Jonathan Chauncey is a Principal Software Engineer with 13 years building and hardening cloud-native infrastructure, currently focused on improving onboarding for services on Workday's Kubernetes platforms. He brings deep hands-on experience from Microsoft—where he founded an Upstream Publishing team producing 100+ internal container images and helped launch container security and hotfix processes—to earlier roles shaping CI/CD, testing, and container tooling. A pragmatic DevOps advocate, he has contributed to prominent open-source projects such as Azure/acs-engine by strengthening CI, hybrid/windows build support, and test reliability. Based in Hahira, Georgia, he blends systems-level engineering with mentorship and process design, making complex container ecosystems safer and easier for teams to adopt. An understated strength is his consistent focus on automating reliability: from image scanning and patching to cross-job failure tracking in tests.
