My name is Spencer Hayes and I'm a Senior Technical Operations Engineer at Instaclustr working out of Jacksonville, Florida. I graduated from Boston University in 2018 with a B.A. in Computer Science and a minor in Japanese Language & Literature.
Systems Administration has always been a strong interest of mine, particularly in the context of distributed systems and cloud computing. I greatly enjoy working with new technology and pride myself on being able to quickly adapt to changing environments. Java, Python, and Bash are my most prolific languages, under which I have years of experience working with various libraries/frameworks, database systems, stacks, and tooling. I am well-versed in the ups and downs of cloud and on-prem management. Outside of the world of tech, some things I enjoy are running, aviation, playing saxophone, and chess.
