Summary
Jonathan Lynch is a Staff Infrastructure Engineer with a decade of experience building and operating cloud-native, observability-driven platforms. He specializes in automating infrastructure and reliability workflows (CI/CD, GitOps, Kubernetes, Docker, AWS) and has a strong engineering background in Bash, Python, Java, and PL/SQL. At a stealth FinTech he led cost-saving observability migrations, made infrastructure AI-ready with Claude skills and ticket-completing pipelines, and rolled out cluster-wide security and networking (Cilium, Kyverno, NetworkPolicy) with zero downtime. Previously at Tenable he migrated script-heavy ops to IaC, scaled Kubernetes to thousands of nodes, and drove SLO and production-readiness practices across SRE teams. Known for pragmatic solutions—heartbeat alerting for noisy CDC pipelines and a careful Postgres16 upgrade path that preserved CDC data—he blends hands-on systems programming with cross-team leadership and documentation to enable self-service across organizations. Based in Morgantown, WV, he pairs academic roots in computer science with a track record of turning messy legacy systems into maintainable, measurable platforms.
