Alan Ivey
Senior DevOps Engineer

About

I've been supporting development operations for the last 15 years. I work well with developers to get code through pipelines and into production. My Bachelor's Degree is in Network Security and I have always applied strong security practices in the beginning of new projects. I've successfully seen a project through the US Federal ATO process for one of the world's largest health data collection systems for AIDS relief. In addition to building fault-tolerant, redundant systems, I've scaled our business from a couple dozen dedicated instances to nearly 500. I'm strong both in technical skill and ability, but I am also great at connecting with clients and connecting requirements to the mission.
