Colin Walker
I am a full stack web and devops developer. I currently work at Sendwithus as a developer for our backend and infrastructure teams. I’ve worked to scale out a high throughput email delivery platform, built a Kubernetes cluster for an enterprise product, managed Cassandra databases and built production Ruby on Rails applications.
My GitHub is full of all my fun projects and is a good representation of the types of programming that I enjoy working on. I love to play with distributed systems, developer CI/CD tools, building databases and sometimes hacking my own fitbit.
I have been a sailing instructor for over 6 years and enjoy sailing whenever I can. I try and keep my passion for teaching throughout my work and enjoy working on productive and fun teams. I occasionally tutor at Lighthouse Labs.

- Deliverybot: Simple GitHub deployment automation.
- Battlesnake: Battlesnake is a fun engaging progrmamming game.
