Summary
Nygel Bennett is a DevOps Engineer with 8 years of hands-on experience optimizing Linux-first cloud infrastructure, automation, and CI/CD across Azure, Kubernetes, and on-prem networking environments. He combines deep Linux administration and Bash/Python scripting with practical IaC—authoring ARM templates, converting classic pipelines to YAML, and managing secrets and variable groups for repeatable deployments. At Guy Carpenter and Comcast he’s solved complex build, container, and networking challenges (BGP/ISIS/LACP) while building dashboards and runbooks that improve developer observability and incident response. Known among peers as a builder and Linux enthusiast, he also brings customer-facing troubleshooting experience from Linode where he improved backup restores and created reusable automation tools for support teams. Based in Philadelphia, he pairs methodical operations discipline with a curiosity for low-level networking and deployment ergonomics that helps teams ship more reliably.
