Senior🎓
Top SchoolPato Arvizu is a Senior DevOps/SRE engineer based in New York with 13 years of experience automating build, release, and deployment workflows to shorten the path from code to business value. He specializes in JVM-based development, continuous delivery, and internal tooling that makes developer workflows stable and repeatable, having shipped automation at scale across startups and large media enterprises. His work spans AWS, Puppet/Chef, CloudFormation, CI systems like Jenkins/Bamboo, and cost-optimization techniques such as spot-instance management and AMI versioning. At OnSwipe and Beanstock he built internal microapps (Knob, Knotifier, Whistle) to solve service versioning, spot-price monitoring, and custom alerting—demonstrating a bias for pragmatic tooling over flashy products. Colleagues describe him as the “engineer’s engineer”: focused on developer experience, testing, and virtualization to enable faster, safer releases. Outside work he volunteers with animal rescue, reflecting a practical, service-oriented mindset.
