Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSean Pianka is a Senior AI Infrastructure Engineer with a decade of experience building scalable, cloud-native systems for GPU-accelerated workloads and production ML platforms. He designs and ships CI/CD and GitOps-driven automation, having led large DevOps migrations and multi-tenant deployment lifecycles at NVIDIA while also provisioning bare-metal Kubernetes for air-gapped, high-utilization clusters. As a founder and former CTO he architected a serverless, event-driven energy management platform (GridLite) with a Rust CQRS/DDD backend, integrating utility APIs and driving product-market refinements through user feedback and a Y Combinator interview. Sean blends low-level systems thinking with product-minded delivery, routinely interfacing with SRE, security, and operations teams to harden infrastructure and enable zero-downtime upgrades. Based in Boston, he favors declarative infrastructure, automation-first workflows, and pragmatic engineering trade-offs that scale across cloud and on-prem environments. An often-overlooked strength is his track record of translating research-grade GPU tooling into repeatable operational patterns for enterprise customers.
