Background

About Chris Gick

I’m a versatile and detail-driven technology professional with a strong foundation in software development, cloud platforms, and system support — now pivoting into the field of industrial controls and automation. With years of hands-on experience developing and maintaining complex software systems, I bring valuable technical and analytical skills to environments that demand precision, reliability, and safety. I’m passionate about the intersection of software and hardware — especially how modern tools like Python, Java, Docker, and REST APIs can be applied to programmable logic controllers (PLCs), SCADA systems, and IIoT technologies. My experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure, GCP), DevOps practices, and Linux-based systems gives me a modern edge in an industry undergoing digital transformation. Whether debugging production systems, collaborating with cross-functional teams, or managing code in version-controlled environments, I thrive in high-responsibility roles where technology must work reliably in the real world. I’m actively growing my knowledge in ladder logic, OPC-UA, Modbus, and control system integration. If you're looking for a motivated problem-solver with a unique blend of software engineering expertise and a growing background in automation and controls — let’s connect.
