Corey Donohoe’s Summary

XP Software Development and Automation, sprinkled with some UNIX.

Corey Donohoe’s Specialties:

Fluent from hardware to high level software development. I always get my RAID numbers mixed up and my CSS could use some polishing, but I've got a lot of useful technology indexed in my head.

Corey Donohoe’s Experience

• Hacker

  Engine Yard

  (Privately Held; 1-10 employees; Internet industry)

  April 2007 — Present (2 years 8 months)

  First technical employee that wasn't a founder. Managed the app support side of things for about 9 months and have been doing internal development since.

• Rails Developer

  Centerstone Tennessee

  (Health, Wellness and Fitness industry)

  March 2006 — March 2007 (1 year 1 month)

  This was my first full-time Ruby gig. I was hired to help train a team of Java developers that were converting to Ruby on Rails for a healthcare application. I left to work at Engine Yard.

• Solaris Administrator

  Consilium1

  (Information Services industry)

  July 2004 — February 2006 (1 year 8 months)

  I was hired to manage a bunch(~100) of Solaris 8 machines running J2EE Application Servers in a shared environment. I wrote a perl suite that completely automated our job, everything from metrics gathering to process management. I learned Ruby here and snuck little rails 1.0 apps into the enterprise running against Oracle on Solaris 8.

• UNIX Administrator

  University of Memphis

  (Educational Institution; Higher Education industry)

  January 2002 — December 2003 (2 years )

  I was hired when the Computer Science Department realized I could help them with their problem of Solaris machines constantly getting hacked. I did security audits, re-imaged the entire department, implemented OpenBSD transparent bridges, and setup IPF firewalls on all the solaris machines. After that I "took care of the flock" of UNIX machines until I graduated.
