Summary
Zachary Gonzales is a Machine Learning DevOps and Senior Site Reliability Engineer with eight years building cloud-native, secure platforms across Azure, AWS, and Kubernetes. He has led major migrations and IaC initiatives—designing reusable Terraform and Helm modules, automated CI/CD pipelines, and developer portals—to reduce toil and improve governance at scale. At Sage and prior roles he strengthened security posture through automated vulnerability remediation, MFA/SSO, and integrated monitoring and disaster recovery runbooks. Now at Crunchylife he’s applying SRE and MLops practices to productize ingredient intelligence for conscious shoppers, while contributing to upstream projects like Kubernetes and OpenTelemetry. Known for combining pragmatic automation (Argo CD, GitHub Actions) with cost-aware observability, he also has a track record of turning security alerts into automated fixes and measurable operational savings. Based in Austin, he pairs hands-on engineering with open-source collaboration to move complex systems from proof-of-concept to resilient production.
