Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolRoss Jimenez is a seasoned cloud engineering leader with over 25 years of technology experience and more than a decade in senior cloud roles, currently leading Lumen’s Cloud Center of Excellence from Rio Rancho, NM. He specializes in driving enterprise cloud adoption through governance, reusable IaC patterns, self-service platforms, and cross-functional enablement that balance innovation with security and compliance. Ross has repeatedly built and scaled global platform and SRE organizations—shifting monoliths to microservices, launching Kubernetes fleets, and delivering developer portals and DevSecOps toolchains. His background spans federal high-security environments (Sandia) to product-focused startups and large enterprises (HP, InVision, CenturyLink), giving him a rare blend of operational rigor and product-minded engineering. A pragmatic strategist, he often surfaces non-obvious leverage by turning platform governance into developer velocity via automation and reusable infrastructure.
