Cody Brock
Software Engineer — Platform & Infrastructure
Berkeley, CA
I’m a software engineer working on platform and infrastructure. Since 2021 I’ve been at Bevy, where I build and operate cloud infrastructure (Kubernetes on GCP, Terraform, Argo CD) for a multi-tenant platform used by enterprise brands.
Recent work:
- migrated our full fleet of customer instances to new VPC-native GKE clusters with zero downtime
- built the Kubernetes serving tier for a new Next.js frontend and took it to 100% of production traffic
- remediated and hardened infrastructure ahead of a successful SOC 2 Type II audit, and rolled out the code-scanning platform that keeps findings closed
- cut total cloud spend 25% through successive redesigns of the async-worker tier and a move to shared node pools
- replaced the on-call and incident-response platform, codifying schedules and escalations in Terraform and cutting tooling costs 57%; alerts now carry their runbooks and context, so a 3am page arrives with answers
My default approach: make the change reversible, canary it on real workloads, roll it out in risk-ranked batches, and delete the scaffolding when it’s done.
Certified Kubernetes Administrator (CKA). Before software I was an operations manager at a luxury adventure-travel company, and before that I studied history at UC Berkeley.
