Summary
David Sudia is a Senior Product Engineer in Denver with nine years of experience building cloud-native developer platforms and developer experience tooling. He’s held product and advocacy roles at Teleport and Ambassador Labs and previously served as CTO of UPchieve, where he scaled platform usage 10x, grew the open-source contributor community 3x, and helped secure $2M+ in grant funding. Technically hands-on across Kubernetes, Terraform, Prometheus, Go, CI/CD and full-stack tooling, he specializes in turning early Heroku-style stacks into scalable, repeatable cloud-native systems. He believes great developer platforms are force multipliers and combines that philosophy with practical developer education and process work. Unusually, his background in special education and an M.Ed. informs a human-centered approach to developer enablement and self-service workflows.
