About Evan Conlon

As a Site Reliability Engineer at Dell Technologies with six years of experience in the tech industry, I leverage my software engineering background to drive innovation, system reliability, and performance optimization. I’m passionate about utilizing cutting-edge technologies, particularly in the cloud space, to streamline processes and improve our systems as Dell transitions its applications to cloud platforms. I have hands-on experience with tools such as Pivotal Cloud Foundry, AWS, Kubernetes, and Docker, working closely with our partners to ensure seamless system performance and foster strong relationships.Prior to IT, I gained experience in different industries, which reinforced the importance of a strong company culture and work-life balance. These values are vital to success and productivity, fostering collaboration and growth. In my role at Dell, I’m committed to mentoring and training others. Early in my career, I volunteered to mentor our intern, creating a tailored growth plan with hands-on experience and collaboration, which helped them develop into a well-rounded engineer. This initiative highlighted my passion for nurturing talent in the tech community.In addition to my tech career, I have a deep passion for cars—especially building and drifting them. Growing up, I learned a lot from my father, who used to race cars and was a huge influence on my hobby. Over the years, I’ve become self-taught in car mechanics, from engine work to fine-tuning performance for drifting events. Just like in my tech career, I love the challenge of problem-solving and learning new skills through hands-on experience.Programming Languages: Angular, Java, JavaScript, HTML, CSS, Scala, C, C#, C++, Node.jsDatabase Technologies: SQL, Oracle, MongoDBI’m excited about the future of technology and am always eager to expand my knowledge in areas like cloud technologies and software development.
