Senior🎓
Top SchoolMichael Porter is a Senior DevOps Engineer in New York with over a decade of hands-on experience modernizing web and infrastructure stacks—from early web development and ColdFusion to building CI/CD and containerized platforms at media companies like Showtime and Paramount+. He excels in automating reliable deployments using Jenkins, Terraform, Ansible, Packer, EKS and Docker, and has a track record of moving teams from FTP/git-pull workflows to branch-based CI/CD with blue/green releases. Comfortable across application and operations layers, he pairs deep legacy-app familiarity (ColdFusion, Drupal) with cloud-native best practices and monitoring. A pragmatic problem-solver, he’s not afraid to propose better approaches when designs won’t scale, and enjoys converting business logic into dependable production systems.
