Summary

Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolRyan Phelps is a seasoned platform and SRE leader with 11+ years building resilient infrastructure and developer-facing services, currently overseeing Kubernetes, messaging, and observability teams at Apex Fintech Solutions. He pairs deep systems-level expertise—from cache behavior and packet serialization to indexed SQL joins—with a practical UI sensibility and heavy emphasis on user testing. His background spans embedded Linux, FPGA interfaces, real-time vision and gesture APIs, and modern cloud tooling (GCP, Terraform, Prometheus, Grafana, RabbitMQ, MongoDB, Elasticsearch). Known for mentoring engineers in modern C++ and reliability practices, he also brings a rare blend of low-level systems craft and application-layer product thinking. Based in Portland, he’s equally comfortable optimizing a complex OLTP query as he is designing a public API for gesture-driven devices.
