Knight-Errant is a pragmatic software engineer with five years of experience focused on DevOps and release automation, based in New York. He contributes to notable open-source projects like tilt (tilt.dev), where he specializes in release management and keeping build/install tooling consistent across platforms. Comfortable working in Kubernetes-centric developer workflows, he brings a detail-oriented approach to versioning, scripting, and CI/CD maintenance. Colleagues know him as the "wandering knight" who reliably shepherds releases from commit to installer. His work reflects a blend of systems thinking and hands-on scripting that reduces friction for developer environments.
