Where I've worked.

2022 – Present

Independent Cloud & Infrastructure Consultant

Terraform-managed cloud infrastructure and CI/CD delivery for healthcare, logistics, and SaaS clients, increasingly paired with AI-assisted automation and the occasional client web app.

2019 – 2022

Senior Cloud Engineer, Meridian Health Systems

Rebuilt the on-prem patient records platform as Terraform-managed AWS infrastructure, then automated most of the change review. Cut unplanned downtime by 40 percent.

2016 – 2019

Infrastructure Engineer, Cascade Logistics

Replaced manual network changes with version-controlled configuration across 12 warehouse sites, and shipped the company's first CI/CD pipeline.

2014 – 2016

IT Support Specialist, Brightline Capital

Where it started, and where most of the hard lessons happened.

Web application code

The part I'd do for free.

Enterprise infrastructure is the day job. Building web applications for clients, start to finish, is what I chase on purpose. Same CI/CD discipline, just a different kind of ship day.

Selected work

Proof, not promises.

Meridian Health Systems migration

Meridian Health Systems

Cloud migration, rebuilt as Terraform

Six months, entirely as version-controlled Terraform, zero data loss, 40 percent less downtime, finished ahead of a HIPAA audit.

Enterprise client, financial services

AI-assisted incident response

Runbooks paired with an AI-assisted triage layer, cutting time-to-remediation on routine incidents.

Independent client, e-commerce

Client web app, built and shipped

A Vue storefront, deployed through a CI/CD pipeline that now ships updates same-day.

"Craig found single points of failure our own team had missed for years. The migration finished early and nothing broke."

Elena Marsh, VP of Operations, Meridian Health Systems

Have a system that needs to stay up?

Tell me what you're running and where it's breaking. I usually reply within a day.
