Summary
Jordan Rodgers is a seasoned software engineer with 11 years of experience building and operating cloud-native infrastructure and developer tooling, now working at Figma in the Los Angeles area. He has driven platform and reliability initiatives at Mux and Slack, including Kubernetes cluster management, CI/CD redesign with Buildkite and Bazel, and rolling out SLO-driven reliability programs. Jordan has a strong track record of automating toil—implementing remote execution for faster builds, self-service Terraform via Atlantis, and developer-facing tools for safe rollouts and dashboarding. His background in systems administration and storage (oVirt, Ceph) informs pragmatic platform decisions and migration work. Peers rely on him to translate observability signals into controlled deployment strategies and faster on-boarding for services. He's as comfortable writing operators and infrastructure tooling as he is reducing complex operational processes from hours to minutes.
