Summary
Kenneth Myers is a Principal Software Engineer with 11 years of experience building cloud-native, DevOps-first systems and leading cross-functional engineering teams. He has designed and shipped scalable Golang microservices and managed global Kubernetes platforms, combining hands-on application development with infrastructure-as-code using Terraform, Docker, GitLab CI, AWS and GCP. His background includes impactful roles at Copado (acqui-hire), New Context, IBM and the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, where he led the Fed’s first production cloud project and drove major CI/CD and automation improvements. Kenneth is certified across AWS DevOps, Solutions Architect, SysOps and Developer tracks, and he brings a strong focus on clean, maintainable code and automated testing. A lifelong programmer who started at 16, he also has a history of competitive AI and robotics work (DARPA challenge, MIT Battlecode) that informs his practical approach to complex distributed systems. He’s as comfortable pairing on Python or SQL as he is architecting large-scale Golang services and the pipelines that deploy them.
