Ryan Scott Brown

Python/Go hacker, open-sourcerer, and DevOps automator.

I work primarily with OpenStack, AWS, Python, and Go in the context of large distributed systems. High-scale systems and graceful failure handling are my favorite problem classes.

B.S. Applied Networking and Systems Administration, minor in Software Engineering from Rochester Institute of Technology.
