Senior🎓
Top SchoolTony Lykke is a Site Reliability Engineer with 13 years of experience building and stabilizing high-throughput systems, currently based in New York. He holds a combined Bachelor and Master in Software Engineering from The University of Queensland and has a background tutoring information security and embedded C, which honed his ability to explain complex technical concepts clearly. At Hudson River Trading he cut urgent paging by 75% and built a Prometheus cluster scraping 250k samples/second, and at Atlassian he automated a complex RMA workflow to eliminate most manual toil. A pragmatic backend engineer comfortable across languages and stacks, he contributes to open-source monitoring work like Sensu Go, focusing on check/event handling and scalable event stores. He combines strong incident leadership with a habit of leaving systems and documentation measurably better than he found them.
