Summary
Kyle Schien is an Enterprise Solutions Architect with over a decade of experience architecting resilient, production-grade systems and leading cross-functional technical strategy for irrigation and environmental data platforms. He combines deep hands-on expertise in Linux/Windows system administration, databases (MySQL, Oracle, Mongo), web stacks (LAMP/WAMP), and embedded device connectivity with practical troubleshooting skills honed running a 14-year consulting business supporting 100+ clients. At ETwater and now Husqvarna Group he translates business drivers into documented current and future state architectures, advises on API-driven data integrations (weather, mapping, municipal datasets), and guides high-level design for complex programs. Known for applying the scientific method to root-cause problems, he’s comfortable debugging everything from MSP430 GPRS devices and SIM/LTE issues to server, network, and MALWARE incidents. He brings a hybrid operator/architect perspective—equally fluent in on-call recovery and long-term platform strategy—and a fast aptitude for learning new tools like Kubernetes, ELK, and container workflows. Based in Novato, CA, he pairs systems-level thinking with a practical streak from years of small-business operations and fulfillment process improvements.
