Jeff Moser

Senior Cloud and Platform Engineer with a focus on Kubernetes, GitOps, and AWS infrastructure.
I help SaaS teams build and operate platforms that hold up at scale — and I make a point of teaching what I know.

I'm a Senior Cloud Engineer with more than two decades of experience building and operating software systems. My career has taken me from full-stack development and project management into cloud infrastructure, platform engineering, and Kubernetes operations at an international SaaS company. The one constant in my career has been figuring out hard problems in production environments.

Today my work centers on Kubernetes and AWS. I'm managing multi-region EKS clusters, GitOps delivery with ArgoCD, infrastructure automation with Ansible, and the kind of operational complexity that comes with running distributed systems across multiple environments at scale.

I'm currently filling in the gaps that hands-on learning tends to leave behind by working through KCNA and CKA certification, with AWS Security Specialty to follow. Not just credential collecting, but building depth that holds up when it matters.

Outside of operations work, I've spent time in front of people as an adjunct professor in Cloud Computing and as a Harley-Davidson riding skills coach. Both taught me the same thing: if you can't explain it clearly, you don't fully understand it yet. That instinct carries into how I document, communicate, and work with teams.

Based in South Carolina's Lowcountry, and open to the right opportunities.
