Summary
Michael Kopsho is a pragmatic software engineer with eight years of hands-on experience who transitioned from technical program management into developer-focused engineering roles, currently working on observability platforms at Intuit Mailchimp. He brings a rare blend of systems, SRE, and developer experience expertise—having designed CI/CD and Helm libraries for 100+ microservices, automated critical support workflows that massively reduced MTTR, and saved Greenlight ~$40k per quarter by implementing artifact lifecycle policies. Comfortable across backend and frontend stacks, networking, and production operations, he also freelancers to stitch cost-effective serverless and API-driven solutions for small businesses. Equally at home brewing automation in Python/Go as he is configuring Terraform, ArgoCD, and Datadog, Michael pairs practical engineering with an operator’s mindset and a penchant for reducing toil. Outside work he channels the same methodical curiosity into brewing beer, games, and fishing.
