York, England, United Kingdom
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolStuart Howlette is a Lead Site Reliability Engineer with nearly 15 years in service provider networks and over a decade managing Linux and BSD infrastructure, currently driving reliability at Ticketmaster. He blends deep networking pedigree (CCNA/CCNP, BCNE) with cloud-native SRE practices, Terraform IaC, Kubernetes/Openshift automation and production-grade monitoring using Prometheus, Datadog and custom Golang exporters. Stuart has a strong track record migrating bare-metal workloads to Nomad/Kubernetes, building admission controllers and policy frameworks, and automating large-scale platform operations with Python and Go. Known as a "techy dad," he pairs hands-on coding—especially in Golang and Python—with network architecture experience, having designed core ISP networks and led legacy migrations to reduce operational cost. Less obvious: he routinely converts networking operational problems into reproducible software tools and exporters, making opaque infrastructure observable and debuggable.
