Bruno Bronosky
Principal DevOps Engineer | Team Lead & Trainer
About
Principal DevOps engineer with 30+ years building and running production systems, from data center racks to AWS, Azure, and GCP. I replace manual operations with tested automation (Terraform, Ansible, GitHub Actions, Python, Bash, PowerShell) and teach teams to own it: DevOps trainer for four enterprise clients worth $3B to $1T, and co-manager of a 30-developer team. I use AI coding agents daily (Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, OpenClaw) and self-hosted LLMs to ship infrastructure work faster.

Roofing Skill Supervisor
I started out as a Cox employee volunteering for a single day on a Clark Howard build. It was Day 1, so I came back every weekend to see the whole project completed. (Because I'm that kind of person.) At the end of the build the leader said, "Great! Now that you've completed the 7 week training, pick a specialty so we can get you certified and put you to work." So, I didn't really set out to be a supervisor, but it has been one of the best experiences of my life.
