Top School

Ryan Barry is an experienced systems and software engineer with 11 years in production environments and a decade focused on systems/network administration, virtualization, and automation. He blends deep hands-on expertise in Python, Perl, Ruby, and Go with infrastructure tooling like Puppet, Ansible, Cobbler, and cloud automation on AWS. At Red Hat he led engineering teams, drove security compliance programs (FIPS, DISA-STIG, FedRAMP), and rebuilt critical virtualization hosts from the ground up, while contributing cross-project fixes across the Linux stack. He also migrates legacy operations into modern CI/CD and IaC practices, having moved scripts to Ansible and built distributed Jenkins infrastructure. An active open-source contributor, he’s worked on cri-dockerd updates to keep container runtimes aligned with upstream Kubernetes APIs. Based in Raleigh, NC, he pairs a systems-first mindset with a track record of turning complex, risky migrations into repeatable, automated processes.
