Summary
🤩
RockstarScott Poore is a Principal Quality Engineer at Red Hat with over a decade of experience evolving from old-school sysadmin roles into Linux and quality engineering. He built and maintained mission-critical systems early in his career—managing weather and flight-tracking infrastructure at United Airlines and later network, database, and web servers for e-commerce—before spending 11 years at Bank of America supporting DNS, NTP, NetApp, HP-UX, Solaris, and RHEL deployments. At Red Hat he focuses on Identity Management (FreeIPA), automating tests for complex features like Active Directory trusts and integrating smart cards with RH-SSO. Comfortable operating across global, cross-functional teams, he pairs deep systems knowledge with pragmatic test automation to harden security-sensitive services. A skillful bridge between operations and development, he brings rare hands-on experience with both legacy Unix and modern Linux ecosystems.
