Welcome!

My name's Ashley Dumaine and this is my (re-re-done) personal website! Be sure to check out my blog page which I'm making an effort to keep populated with interesting / fun projects I've worked on. Stay tuned.

About Me

If someone had told me years ago that I would be on the cover of a magazine, create a mind-controlled quadcopter, help develop a native iOS app for a company, and land an internship at a tech giant all before my senior year of college, I most likely would not have believed them.

Despite having no programming experience prior to college, I managed to stand out as an honors student in UConn’s Computer Science and Engineering program. I enjoyed inspiring students of all ages such as at UConn's Open House events and the annual Connecticut Invention Conventions.

Now I’m a software engineer with 7+ years of experience in designing, developing, deploying, and maintaining DevOps infrastructure and cloud-native solutions including dozens of Kubernetes clusters across the globe and the software that help runs them.

My professional endeavors have taken me across many adventures including designing a better build system, co-leading an internal pilot, tinkering on open source CNCF projects, prototyping a PCI-compliant private cloud, improving an existing revenue-generating product, and even designing a new one.
