Joshua M. Smith

💼 I'm a Solutions Architect at AWS, where I help hyperscale customers run and build platforms on the world's largest public cloud. I focus on Serverless technologies, helping cutting-edge companies run efficiently at low cost.

Prior to AWS, I spent almost a decade consulting in the federal space, working in infrastructure engineering and cloud security architecture for lots of three-letter agencies.

I was also a co-founder of Coinmunity, a former cryptocurrency data aggregation platform offering community and market analytics. Coinmunity shut down in 2018.

🎓 Started in Architecture, switched to Computer Science years later for my BS. I recently completed my Master's in CS at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.

⛺ Love to travel and track down new food and craft beers. Other hobbies include hiking, snowboarding, cycling, talking big ideas, and building neat things.
