Senior🎓
Top SchoolOzzy Osborne is a seasoned software developer with two decades of experience and a 12-year focus on cloud-native Java ecosystems, currently delivering cloud and Quarkus-focused solutions at IBM. He has deep enterprise roots at IBM and Red Hat, where he authored the Snowdrop Java Buildpack Library and contributed to Buildpacks and Image Extensions specs—bridging Java runtime concerns with cloud packaging standards. Ozzy combines hands-on development across microservices, reactive Java, security (JWT/OAuth2), and persistence/messaging technologies with public-facing technical writing and conference talks. He’s comfortable spanning low-level runtime work (OSGi, WebSphere) to modern containerized build pipelines, and has a track record of evolving internet-facing polyglot systems across multiple clouds. Based in Montreal, he brings a rare blend of long-term enterprise product experience and recent open technical stewardship in cloud-native developer infrastructure.
