About Joshua Fechner

I\'m a seasoned Senior DevOps Engineer with over a decade of experience in the industry. I excel in leveraging cloud infrastructure, specifically Amazon Web Services (AWS), to develop and deploy cloud-first applications for various clients. My proficiency lies in integrating and using all aspects of AWS including EC2, S3, ELBs, SES, SNS, SQS, Route53, RDS, DynamoDB, and more. I\'ve efficiently overseen public-facing production systems and large cloud-hosted infrastructures while maintaining up-to-date detailed documentation, providing monitoring and disaster recovery support. A testament to my abilities is my track record of saving clients up to 80% of their EC2 spend through strategic use of EC2 Spot Instances. With these savings, businesses have been able to reallocate resources towards innovation and growth. Additionally, I bring strong troubleshooting skills developed from years of managing multiple AWS accounts on a day-to-day basis. My experience spans across Linux/UNIX web and application servers running Tomcat and Apache as well as the design and evaluation of production-ready web application server clusters. If you\'re looking for someone who can not only manage your existing devops procedures but also think ahead to future-proof your operations, let\'s connect. I’m always open to discussing how we can leverage the power of AWS together for better efficiency and cost-effectiveness.
