Hi there…

This is my business card. Do with it what you will. I was going to publish a Curriculum Vitae here but I’ve been in this business too long and it takes forever, so here’s the potted summary:

I am currently open to work

Feel free to get in touch, details below

• I do DevOps stuff, often with Windows but often not. More so not these days.
• I’ve been doing that for ages (25 years now!) and I’ve seen and done a lot of things, and I’m proud of several of them.
• Now I lead DevOps and SRE teams and I’m hoping I’ll be good at that but in line with everything else in my entire career, I often have no idea if I’m succeeding or not.
• I was diagnosed with ADHD during the COVID pandemic, which explained a lot and gave me a fresh perspective on things.
• I help to run the DevUps mentoring community on Discord
• I have particular interests in:
  • Continuous Delivery and Rapid Iteration
  • Disposable Infrastructure, as code
  • Python, PowerShell, F#, Terraform, things like that
  • Automated testing in a field notoriously not good at automated testing
  • Disability and Neurodiversity in teams
  • Miming the boring bits, or at least making a robot do them
  • Small web, privacy, inclusive technology
  • AWS, Azure, GCP and basically anything that has an API and can be made to scale up (or down) quickly
  • Internet of Things. My home is quite automated and I’ve built a whole bunch of toys using Raspberry Pi and Arduino, including at work
  • 3D printing and carpentry. Actually making physical objects!
  • Wishing I could ride my bike more but not actually riding my bike more

You can look at a bunch of links here

But can I get in touch??

• You can email me using pretty much anything @jasbro.io - it all gets to me.
• The current version of my CV is here
• You can find me on LinkedIn.
• You can also find me on Twitter
• Also, because Twitter is in mortal danger, Mastodon.
• My non-work-related Mastodon account is at Aus.social.
• My GitHub is here.
• I used to blog over here but not for a loooong time and I may even shut that down.
• I have a YouTube Channel in its very beginnings, which will be posted here when the first videos drop
