About Ben Drolet
While my title has been Senior Software Engineer, I’ve consistently been responsible for deploying, scaling, and automating infrastructure in AWS using Terraform, Kubernetes, and CI/CD pipelines. I’ve reduced deploy times, built observability into systems with Datadog, and acted as the platform engineer in greenfield and enterprise environments. I’m now focused on leveraging this experience to take on dedicated DevOps/Platform roles.
