Summary
Ryan Tracey is a Senior DevOps Engineer with 8+ years’ experience designing and operating cloud-native infrastructure across startups, consultancies and large corporates, currently delivering AWS-based solutions at The Mobility House. He blends deep Linux and database administration skills (MySQL, PostgreSQL, RDS) with CI/CD and container expertise—CloudFormation, Fargate, Docker, GitHub and CircleCI—while driving observability via Prometheus, Grafana, ELK and RabbitMQ. Ryan is valued for his analytical, structured approach to incident investigation and for building reusable automation and configuration tooling (SaltStack, Ansible, Fabric) that standardises delivery. He has a proven track record migrating and scaling systems—having led replication and ETL efforts as well as complex AWS migrations—and often pairs scripting (Python, SQLAlchemy, Bash) with architecture to solve operational bottlenecks. Based in the Greater Munich area, he combines hands-on systems work with a knack for translating business priorities into reliable, repeatable platform practices.
