Shaun Reed is a Senior Software Engineer with a decade of experience building backend systems and maintaining production infrastructure, currently contributing to the core storage engine at TileDB. Comfortable from bare-metal Ubuntu servers to customized developer environments, he blends C++ systems development with practical DevOps—Ansible, Docker, cron, Fail2ban and OSSEC—to run and secure small cloud fleets on DigitalOcean. He has hands-on experience with Git and SVN and publishes implementations of data structures, algorithms, and design patterns in public repos, alongside contributions that improved TileDB’s metadata, filtering, and CI workflows. A former systems operations analyst, he pairs on-call and incident-response rigor with code-first problem solving, and he actively pursues side projects that broaden his tooling and platform expertise.
