Matthew Birky
@matthewbirky
Platform engineer with 10+ years building CI/CD and cloud infrastructure for reliable deployments.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I’m a senior engineer with over a decade of experience building the infrastructure teams rely on to ship software. My career focus is the intersection of development and operations—migrating CI/CD systems, managing cloud infrastructure, and solving the problems that keep teams from deploying with confidence.
Most recently, I owned CI/CD and cloud infrastructure for the Salesforce/e-commerce platform team, and I was promoted from Engineer II to Senior Software Engineer. I also led emergency Log4Shell patching across infrastructure and received a company award for the response.
Earlier, I migrated front-end CI/CD pipelines from Jenkins to GitLab CI, improving build reliability and developer experience. I’ve also built and maintained automated test infrastructure for enterprise version control software, and I continue to deliver production-style platform engineering through projects like TeamTime.
