Top SchoolZane Dufour is a Senior Staff DevOps Engineer based in Seattle with 8 years of experience building production ML and cloud-native systems. He blends deep machine learning platform expertise from Ford and Volkswagen with hands-on DevOps at Palo Alto Networks, where he’s modernizing Kubernetes deployments, observability with OpenTelemetry/Grafana Cloud, and secure DB access via ephemeral IAM tokens. Zane has led teams and mentoring efforts, created developer-facing SDKs and internal open-source tooling, and pushed progressive delivery practices to accelerate model and service rollouts. Equally comfortable in Python, Go, and infra-as-code, he prefers staying "at the bottom of the org chart" as a maker who enables others to move faster.
