Very long-term DevOps/DevSecOps/SRE. I build only self-healing, never-wakes-you-up-at-2am, level 9001 infra; and champion individual success.

GitHub Sponsors Profile

Around the turn of the millennium I moved from building things from wood and steel, to building things with teams and code. Along the way I found that if I build enough clever tools, workflows, and automations, that I could get myself, and sometimes others, down to a three day (or less) work week. This is one of the very accessible promises of technology.
I will most commonly be authoring:

Web/Network operational utilities written in BASH/Golang
Fastly Recipes & tips
Platform automation kit (AWS/K8s)
Security tools

As well as any of my philosophies/mental meanderings, such as:

DevOps, SRE, and the future of what, how, and who we are
Value stream maximization, beginning with enabling the individual contributor's success
Talent attraction, retention, and daily engagement during this time of great competition
