Stephen Ayotte is a seasoned systems architecture leader with 20 years of experience designing and automating large-scale, public-facing datacenter and cloud infrastructure. Currently Director of Systems Architecture and Global Cloud Services at ServiceNow, he combines deep systems programming chops with hands-on delivery of deployment, network and placement systems. His career at Salesforce included leading teams that built declarative target-state infrastructure, converted large portions of estate to automation frameworks, and scaled CI/CD and provisioning pipelines. Stephen is skilled at aligning cross-functional teams, mentoring engineers, and acting as scrum master while owning critical architectural direction. Based in Atlanta, he brings a pragmatic, end-to-end perspective—equally fluent in low-level UNIX/Linux engineering and executive leadership training from Tuck. An uncommon strength is his track record of turning manual, risky operational work into repeatable, auditable automation that enabled dramatic infrastructure adoption.
