Keith Ainsworth is a senior software engineering manager with 12 years building high-availability, large-scale streaming and developer platform infrastructure for Hulu and Disney Streaming. He combines deep systems and networking expertise from internships at the Naval Research Laboratory and a CMU background in distributed systems and neural computation to design resilient origin servers, service platforms, and multi-tenant Kubernetes deployments. Keith has led teams delivering infrastructure-as-code, continuous delivery, and platform services (Kubernetes, Spinnaker, Helm, Terraform) that support thousands of developers and dozens of clusters. Notably, he helped create a datacenter Redis-as-a-service platform that earned a patent and enabled Hulu’s migration to cloud-native deployments.
