Jonathon Sisson is a Senior Site Reliability Engineer with nearly two decades in IT and a deep focus on cloud-native infrastructure, including seven years working with Docker and Kubernetes. He has architected and automated multi-cloud database platforms and observability for organizations from Rackspace and AWS to GitLab and Clerk.com, blending hands-on OpenStack, Ceph, and distributed datastore expertise with terraform/chef/ansible-driven IaC. His specialty is productionizing database operations on Kubernetes—Postgres, Cassandra, and MongoDB—while instrumenting latency, traffic, and saturation monitoring to keep global services reliable. Jonathon pairs networking know-how (VPCs, Direct Connect, calico/Neutron) with security-first operational experience from AWS GovCloud and CloudHSM work. Colleagues lean on him for mentoring, runbook and policy design, and for “breaking things” safely in dev to prevent surprises in production. Based in the Tyler–Jacksonville area, he brings a pragmatic, documentation-focused approach that scales teams as well as systems.
