Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolMatt Williams is a Site Reliability Engineer and seasoned technical evangelist with a track record of building developer-facing programs and docs at fast-growing companies. He was the first Evangelist at both Datadog and Infra, where he helped launch training, community, and documentation groups and shipped products like Infra (RBAC for Kubernetes), Keypair (SSH management), and Ollama (local AI). Over a multi-decade career he’s blended hands-on systems work, training, and video production—from international technical training at OpenText to developer relations and partner enablement at startups like Placester and Yottaa. He excels at translating complex distributed systems into clear guidance and repeatable training, a skill honed by running global instructor programs and creating large video training libraries. Based on a background that spans product, sales engineering, and sysadmin roles (plus a BA in Russian Language), he brings communicative leadership as well as operational depth to SRE and developer experience efforts. An interesting quirk: his career arc moves from shipping demos and training VMs in the 90s to evangelizing RBAC and local AI today, showing a rare continuity in bridging technical depth with audience-facing storytelling.
