Summary
Matt Deporter is a founder and CTO specializing in infrastructure and SRE with over a decade of hands-on experience modernizing monolithic systems into scalable, maintainable platforms. He combines deep operational chops—from OpenStack-scale automation and Ansible to GitOps, ArgoCD, and Kubernetes observability—with a pragmatic focus on cost reduction and reduced cloud dependency for startups and growing teams. At TrinityOps and through his consultancy work he helps teams adopt GitOps, robust CI/CD, and fractional SRE practices grounded in real-world operations. Previously, as a senior principal SRE at Dell and an SRE/Linux engineer at Rackspace, he led large-scale migrations, SLO-driven reliability efforts, and automation that cut deployment windows dramatically. Based in Tucson, Matt pairs a research-driven background (robotics and lab systems) with production-grade engineering, making him a frequent go-to for thorny operational problems and cross-team leadership.
