Senior🎓
Top SchoolMichael D is a Sr. Staff Software Engineer with a decade of experience designing and operating cloud-native infrastructure and developer tooling across startups and scale-ups. He blends hands-on engineering in Python, Node, Kubernetes, Terraform, and AWS/GCP with deep SRE and DevOps practice—building CI/CD, immutable infrastructure, and automation that reduce operational toil. His background spans mission-critical roles at Sunrun, Uber, and security-focused Qadium, where he delivered cross-region/cloud networking and scalable monitoring systems. Comfortable across the full stack, he also iterates on front-end work (Vue/React) and config management (Ansible) through personal projects, keeping a practitioner’s curiosity alive. Based in Boise, he pairs a scientific mindset (B.S. in Marine Biology) with pragmatic software craftsmanship, often surfacing subtle systems-level improvements that prevent incidents before they occur.
