Senior🎓
Top SchoolTom Lake is a senior software engineer with nine years of focused experience building and automating test, deployment, and monitoring systems across Azure and cloud platforms. At Microsoft he’s driven reliability and efficiency improvements—designing frameworks that cut CI times and automating pre-check-in test runs so partner teams can ship confidently. His background spans UI, API, service, security, and performance testing, plus hands-on platform work managing Kubernetes clusters, writing operators, and scripting robust automation with languages like C#, PowerShell, Bash, and Python. Tom’s sweet spot is improving developer productivity: he measures success by how much smoother his team’s day becomes because of his work. Based in Kirkland, WA, he pairs deep engineering craft with practical ops experience, from live-site tooling for Cosmos DB to custom VHD cluster automation. An often-overlooked strength is his long track record of turning manual, multi-day processes into reliable automated pipelines that scale across teams.
