Summary
👤
SeniorJosh Espinoza is a Lead Software Engineer with 11 years of hands-on experience evolving from PHP-based web development into DevOps and platform engineering. At Provo City School District he progressed from field support to website developer, then DevOps engineer, and now leads engineering efforts—bringing deep expertise in PHP, MySQL/MariaDB, Linux server administration, Bash, Docker, and Git. He has built numerous custom WordPress themes and plugins and routinely bridges the gap between application code and the infrastructure that runs it. Comfortable scripting in Python and managing Apache/Ubuntu stacks, Josh combines practical ops instincts with a developer’s attention to extensibility and maintainability. Outside of work he balances code with a love of nature and rock climbing, a hint at his methodical yet adventurous problem-solving style.
