Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMichael Guidero is a Sr. Site Reliability Engineer with a decade of hands-on experience building and automating resilient infrastructure across cloud (GCP, AWS), co-lo, and data center environments. He blends software engineering and DevOps practice—shipping microservices in Go and scripting deployments with Ansible, Terraform, Packer and Puppet—to support multi-tier production systems at scale. His career spans SRE roles at Google and Mandiant and leadership in operations at FlightAware and Sococo, showing a track record of improving reliability in both large cloud platforms and legacy OS fleets (Linux and Solaris). Equally comfortable coding and running infrastructure, he brings practical multi-language fluency (Go, shell, Python, Ruby, Perl, Java, C) to solve platform problems end-to-end. Based in Eugene, Oregon, he pairs formal CS training with military discipline from prior Army service, an uncommon combination that surfaces in his methodical, automation-first approach to incident prevention and recovery.
