Summary
Josh Miller is an AWS Solutions Architect with over a decade of hands-on cloud experience and 20+ years working with open source across industries including government, telecom, energy, and higher education. He specializes in infrastructure-as-code, CI/CD automation, and Kubernetes migrations—having moved workloads from ECS to EKS and kept clusters current up to Kubernetes 1.30 while managing addons and Helm charts. Josh designs pragmatic, cost-conscious cloud architectures (for example replacing NAT Gateways with autoscaled EC2s coordinated by Lambda and EventBridge) and automates deployments with Terraform/Terragrunt, CodeBuild/CodePipeline, Jenkins, and GitLab. He’s built observability and operational playbooks—refactoring pipelines to feed DataDog, deploying CoreDNS autoscaling to bypass Route53 limits, and running monthly game days to upskill teams. Based in Washington, he consults and seeks full-time roles where he can turn messy legacy systems into automated, resilient cloud platforms.
