Summary
Curtis St Pierre is a seasoned software engineering leader with 11 years of experience building and scaling platform and incident management systems, currently serving as Senior Director of Software Engineering at Everbridge. He leads a 32-person, globally distributed Platform Engineering org, driving migrations to Kubernetes, standardized CI/CD practices, and multi-cloud platform strategies that reduced cloud costs by 25% and cut MTTR from over 20 minutes to under 2. Curtis blends hands-on technical depth (Java, Go, Python, Terraform, Ansible, AWS/GCP) with people-first leadership—mentoring managers, grooming individual contributors for promotion, and improving team wellbeing. He has strong compliance and security chops, having delivered FedRAMP, SOC 2, and ISO 27001 certifications across platform teams. Prior roles show a pragmatic DevOps pedigree—managing thousands of VMs, automating database failover, and shipping high-availability alerting systems—so he translates operational reality into strategic platform investments. Based in Duncan, British Columbia, he’s known for aligning engineering roadmaps to business outcomes and for turning complex legacy estates into maintainable, high-velocity developer platforms.
