Summary
🤩
RockstarKatie Chapman is a seasoned software engineer and co-founder with 14 years of experience building and operating cloud-native infrastructure and developer-facing platforms. Based in Dublin, she progressed through hands-on roles from deployment and DevOps engineering to senior staff positions at CircleCI, where she led initiatives like introducing SLOs across the execution domain and delivering IP Ranges to unlock compliance-driven deals. She blends product-minded engineering with systems expertise—spanning Kubernetes, distributed messaging, and operational tooling—and has a track record of taking projects from spike to production while mentoring less-experienced teammates. Earlier roles at Pivotal and Engine Yard show deep experience with distributed systems, RabbitMQ, and automated deployment pipelines. As a founder at SmartGo she’s now applying that operational rigor and customer-focused delivery to shaping a company end-to-end. An understated strength is her ability to translate complex networking and availability requirements into pragmatic features that drive revenue and reliability.
