I'm Daniel Hagen, a Technologist, Creator & Speaker

I'm currently a Principal DevOps Engineer for an enterprise consulting firm, Liatrio, where I help companies transform their software delivery practices. I specialize in cloud-native technologies, DevOps, and automation. I'm a passionate advocate for the use of Open Source technologies and methodologies to improve the quality of software delivery and the lives of those who deliver it.

My last adventure was as the Director of IT for Aspyr Media, an Austin-based leading video game publishing and development partner focused on maximizing the potential of games across all platforms. I lead internal and external IT services, including enabling innovative technologies for customer service initiatives on a global scale, and for employees in their day-to-day work.

I have several industry and project management certifications and contribute to over 20 Open Source libraries, toolset, and systems images. I am a frequent speaker at AWS Summits, ServerlessConf, Open Cloud Foundation, ChefConf, AltConf, DevOpsDays. In addition, I am highly dedicated to the Austin technical community through meet-ups and training junior- and mid-level talent.

Prior to Aspyr, I held IT positions for Logitech and LifeSize Communications.
