Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolJosh Myers is a Staff Platform Engineer with 11 years of hands-on experience building and automating resilient infrastructure across AWS, VMware, and on-prem environments. He has a strong Linux background and is fluent in Ruby, Python, Bash and Go, regularly using Terraform, Kubernetes, Chef/Ansible/Puppet, Prometheus and other observability tooling to deliver production-grade platforms. His career spans high-scale environments at PayPal, Disney Streaming and Klarna, where he rebuilt critical logging and data services under tight deadlines and SLO constraints. Josh prefers pragmatic automation over buzzwords and explicitly avoids crypto, gambling and Azure engagements, signaling clear cultural and technical fit. Notably, he has repeatedly delivered fast turnarounds on complex projects—rewriting an unfinished enterprise logging pipeline and producing a production-ready multi-account AWS PoC in months rather than years. Based in England, he blends systems administration roots with platform engineering at scale, focused on reliability, security and measurable performance.
