13 years of experience in startup software development and DevOps across web apps, cloud, and Linux networking. Six years of leadership in teams of up to 7 people. Looking for an engineering manager or senior IC position to mentor your team and make something people want. Here are a sample of things I've accomplished: * I built a platform for hosting web applications using Kubernetes at a major cloud provider and taught engineers to operate and improve it. It uses Helm to manage the instances of the single-tenant app and includes a Python application to manage the customer instances based on configuration from the subscription management vendor. * I trained and mentored a team of developers in software patterns, communication, and prioritizing work, and I reduced context switching in the team’s workflows, leading to a 72% increase in velocity in two months. * I maintain the community Apt package for Helm, the Kubernetes package manager, which is downloaded more than 200,000 times per month. * I improved performance of a proprietary VPN by adopting Cython, permitting use of C functions in Python, resulting in a 2.5x increase in network throughput when limited by CPU * I created a system to control calls in Asterisk with AI-trained voice commands ('hey asterisk, dial extension 1') https://github.com/mattfox/asterisk-voice-control * In progress- I'm managing a project for getting a B2B SaaS company a SOC 2 Type II report
